ABSTRACT:
A multi-function imaging and tracking device is disclosed. A first Schottky diode array lying in a first plane performs a tracking and acquisition function. A second Schottky diode array lying in a second plane performs an imaging function. The first array is a low resolution, high-speed array while the second array is a high resolution, low-speed array. The second array having an operational parameter to be adjusted by the first array.
