Abstract
An optical detection system for detecting a hostile optical component without exposing the surrounding to unnecessary hazards is disclosed. The system comprises a laser unit configured to provide an adjustable laser beam along an optical path to scan for the optic component or to act as jammer by providing a target spoofing; a single aperture for the optical path; a detector configured to detect through the single aperture retroreflections of the laser beam at the optical component; and a camera for detecting through the single aperture potential candidates for the hostile optical component.
