ABSTRACT:
The camera includes a chip of infrared detectors disposed in lines and a processing chip. The latter comprises integrators for integrating the output currents of the detectors, controlled by an automatic gain control loop for reducing the dynamic of the signal, delay lines, a summator for each line of detectors, error correction devices for reducing the fixed spatial noise errors, and a multiplexer receiving the signals associated with the various lines of detectors and furnishing a signal to a display device.
