ABSTRACT:
A scanning mirror position sensor operable from the back side of a scanning mirror which utilizes the front side of the mirror for scanning a scene to be interrogated or displayed. A rectangular uniformly distributed light source is reflected from the back surface of the scanning mirror across a plurality of parallel photo voltaic diode structure bars which may have a gray coded aluminum mask thereon. The outputs of the diode structure bars energized through openings in the aluminum mask may energize sense amplifiers and output logic to provide a continual and accurate mirror position value.
