ABSTRACT:
A multi-directional infrared detector system provides multi-view or surround-view imaging which is particularly suited for use in tactical battlefield situations. The system utilizes a plurality of infrared detector arrays disposed in a generally circular configuration, each of the infrared detector arrays having a plurality of infrared detector elements formed thereon; a corresponding plurality of dedicated optics assemblies for forming images upon the infrared detector arrays; and at least one conductive conduit supporting layer having conductive conduits formed thereon. The conductive conduit support layer extends inwardly from each of the infrared detector arrays to a core defined by the infrared detector arrays. Signal conditioning circuitry is disposed generally at the core of the infrared detector arrays such that signals representative of the outputs of the infrared detector elements are communicated from the detector elements to the signal processing circuitry via the conductive conduits.
