Abstract: MIRROR MULTIPLEXOR FOR LINEAR IMAGE SENSORS A multiplexing device is provided for forming multiple images of an object. The said device comprises in combination an objective plane operable to accommodate an object, and a plurality of mirrors disposed relative to an optical axis emanating from a line object disposed at the objective plane. The mirrors are operable to form a plurality of optical axes and to propagate each axis along separate optical paths. A common lens is positioned so that the optical axes associated with each optical path traverse the center of the lens; and a plurality of linear photosensitive arrays are positioned at the image plane and are operable to receive the optical image propagating along the separate optical path.
