Abstract: A sensor system for remote object detection, tracking, characterization, and discrimination can have a plurality of sensors. A shared optical train that can facilitate blending of information from the sensors, so as to provide a single view for the plurality of sensors. Small and/or dim objects can be more readily detected. High-resolution 3 dimensional space object imagery and on-demand target information gathering can be provided with reduced data latency. The undesirable effects of atmospheric turbulence along the aiming direction can be mitigated even when there is a high relative velocity between the surveillance platform and remote target.

Abstract: A method of generating a design pattern for a spatial radiation modulator to encode two or more selected spectral components in one or more spectral ranges for the chemometric analysis of a group of analytes. The method includes obtaining a corresponding spectrum for each of the analytes, defining a set of initial spectral windows, constructing a chemometric matrix to relate concentrations of the analytes to intensities of the spectral components, deriving optimized spectral windows, and translating the center wavelength and the bandwidth of each of the optimized spectral windows into a corresponding optimized annular region on the modulator.

Abstract: Scanning interferometer and method of using same providing for rapid, reliable detection of chemical compounds that are readily implemented in low-cost, portable configurations for application in a variety of monitoring and detection applications. A scanning double-beam interferometer, particularly a Michelson interferometer, in which the length of at least one of the optical paths (or arms) of the interferometer is selectively adjustable by use of an actuator in which rotational displacement of a rotatable element is converted into linear displacement of at least one reflective surface which forms an end of an optical path of the interferometer is employed to obtain interferograms of electromagnetic radiation attenuated, emitted, scattered or reflected from a sample. The length of the optical path that is adjusted is determined using an optical detection scheme, particularly where marking on the rotatable element are detected to determine linear displacement of the reflective surface.

Abstract: A method for the wavelength calibration of echelle spectra, in which the wavelengths are distributed across number of orders is characterised by the steps: recording of a line-rich reference spectrum with known wavelengths for a number of the lines, determination of the position of a number of peaks of the reference spectrum in the recorded spectrum, selection of at least two first lines of known order, position and wavelength, determination of a wavelength scale for the order in which the known lines lie, by means of a fit function γm(x), determination of a provisional wavelength scale γ?m 1(x) for at least one neighboring order m 1, by means of addition/subtraction of a wavelength difference γFSR which corresponds to a free spectral region, according to γm 1 ?(x)=γm(x)γFSR with γFSR=γm(x)/m, determination of the wavelengths of lines in said neighboring order m 1, by means of the provisional wavelength scale γ 1(x), replacement of the provisional wavelength of at least two lines by the reference wavelength for said lines as obtained in step (a) and repeat of steps (d) to (g) for at least one further neighboring order.

Abstract: An optical spectrum analyzer is implemented with a detector combined with a tunable filter mounted on a stage capable of 360-degree rotation at a constant velocity. Because of the constant rate of angular change, different portions of the input spectrum are detected at each increment of time as a function of filter position, which can be easily measured with an encoder for synchronization purposes. The unidirectional motion of the mirror permits operation at very high speeds with great mechanical reliability. The same improvements may be obtained using a diffraction grating or a prism, in which case the detector or an intervening mirror may be rotated instead of the grating or prism.
