ABSTRACT:
A focal plane processor, located on the focal plane of an imaging array, allows on-chip imaging and scaling. Computational functions normally achieved by a separate computer may be achieved through the imaging chip itself. This can result in an imager with advanced functionality. Also, additional processing bandwidth provided by the focal plane processor may assist a computer which may receive different image segments from different pixel arrays each having associated focal plane processors.
