Title: Eliyahu Minkov and Multispectral Imaging Innovation.

Introduction

Eliyahu Minkov is an inventor associated with Haifa, Israel, and Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. His work includes a patented approach to capturing multispectral images with a single sensor.

Latest Patents

Minkov is credited with 1 patent: “Multispectral Step-and-Stare Imaging with Single Sensor.” The invention describes an imaging device that uses a series of spectral filters mounted on a rotating filter wheel. A controller synchronizes the wheel’s constant rotation with the imaging platform and the sensor’s gimbal-controlled line of sight, enabling the sensor to capture overlapping step-and-stare images through different filters without changing the wheel’s speed.

Career Highlights

Minkov’s listed patent reflects work on coordinating image capture, sensor movement, and spectral filtering in a single imaging system. He is associated with Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd., a company involved in defense technologies.

Collaborations

The available information connects Minkov’s invention with Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. It does not specify additional collaborators or co-inventors.

Conclusion

Eliyahu Minkov’s patent presents a synchronized, single-sensor method for multispectral imaging, combining a rotating filter wheel with controlled platform and sensor movement.
