New Optical System Maps Multiple Infrared Fields onto Single Detector

Researchers at the Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics have developed an optical system that can focus light from multiple infrared subfields onto one small-format detector. The system analyzes field-dependent spot shapes to identify the origin of isolated infrared targets, achieving about 89% accuracy in tests. This advancement was detailed in a study published in Optics and Laser Technology.
