Abstract: A mid-wave infrared (MWIR) discrete zoom lens for use with remote surveillance and identification having a dual focal length of 9 and 6.39 inches and F #2.8 and F #2, respectively. In one case, a full field of view is about 30.8 degrees for a 9 inch focal length configuration and about 43 degrees for a 6.39 inch focal length configuration. The lens is corrected for monochromatic and chromatic aberrations over the wavelength range 5100 nm-3300 nm. The focal plane may constitute a pixel array consisting of MWIR sensitive material (e.g. InSb, HgCdTe, nBn, SLS, etc.) for use in high-resolution, wide-area imaging applications.

Abstract: The system and method for super resolution processing at long standoff distances in real-time. The system collects a series of image frames and estimated the shift, rotation, and zoom parameters between each of the image frames. A matrix is generated and then an inversion is applied to the matrix to produce a super resolution image of an area of interest while mitigating the effect of any bad pixels on image quality. In some cases, the area of interest is user-defined and in some cases image chips are provided by tracking software. A fast steering mirror can be used to steer and/or dither the focal plane array.

Abstract: A Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR) objective and relay lens system has an F# of 3.33 and angular field of view of 15.28°. It is deployed, with a focal plane and scanning system, on airborne platforms for wide area motion imagery. It is corrected for monochromatic and chromatic aberrations over of 3.3 to 5.1 micrometers. Effective focal length is 20 inches, and the overall length is 40.70 inches. The lens has, from object to image, two groups of optical elements with a cold shield/aperture stop 6 inches from the image plane. Group 1 acts as an objective lens with a positive power and three elements, Group 2 acts as a relay lens has a positive power and four elements. The lens is made of Germanium and Silicon. It used in a scanning system in a pre-objective configuration where the fast scan mirror is located in front of the lens system.

Abstract: An F-theta lens provides more than 88 degrees FFOV, F #2.8 or less, length not more than 200 mm, and/or 2.5 μm or better resolution, with color correction from 450 nm to 650 nm. The lens includes three optical groups having positive, negative, and positive optical powers respectively, which can include four, four, and six elements, respectively. Embodiments include an aperture stop in the center of the second optical group. Refractive indices and ray heights are selected to correct for field curvature. Embodiments further include a CMOS detector having pixel pitch of 1.25 microns or less, density of 18 megapixels or more, focal plane diameter of 57.2 mm or more, Nyquist sampling of 400 lines per mm or more and wide pixel field of view of 30° or more. A plurality of CMOS detectors can be arrayed to create a mosaic image.

Abstract: A panoramic Mid-Wavelength Infrared (MWIR) lens has a plurality of optical elements, wherein each optical element from the plurality of elements is formed from a material that transmits in at least the MWIR band from 3 μm to 5 μm. The plurality of optical element are arranged in a manner that provides a 360 degree azimuth angle and an elevation angle that is within +/−20° from a 90° horizon. The panoramic MWIR lens is configured to be connected to a cooled Dewar, wherein the Dewar includes a cold shield and an image plane to detect light in the MWIR band transmitted through the plurality of optical elements.
