ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for imaging an object illuminated with light onto a photodetector array including a microcomputer for controlling the light gathering of the photodetector array by varying the amount of light reflected onto the photodetector array and by varying a photodetector array variable in response to the output of the photodetector array. In one embodiment, the amount of light reflected onto the photodetector array is varied by modifying either the time the light is reflected onto the array or the power of the light reflected onto the array.
