ABSTRACT:
A multi-mode detector and detection method that utilize shared optical components to detect multiple different incoming wavelengths of energy. Partial de-focusing of incoming light enables imaging and non-imaging outputs from the same detector. Analog and digital pixels enable mixed-mode output. Selective filtering at the detector enables the simultaneous detection of two or more wavelengths of light. Signal processing hardware and algorithms enable the system to simultaneously provide integrated and multi-channel analog outputs to guidance and display systems.
