Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage medium including: a lens and a focal reducer to receive a beam of image; a beam splitter to receive the beam of image from the focal reducer and split the beam of image into multiple directions. The system also includes a plurality of sensors coupled to the beam splitter. Each sensor of the plurality of sensors is configured to sense the beam of image within a particular band of frequencies. Further, the particular band of frequencies of a first sensor of the plurality of sensors does not overlap with the particular band of frequencies of a second sensor of the plurality of sensors. The focal reducer condenses and amplifies the beam of image to increase the sensitivity of each sensor.
