Abstract
A thermal radiation detection device (), said device comprising a sensor array () comprising a plurality of sensor elements () and an optical waveguide () having a radiation input end () and a radiation output end (). The radiation input end () is configured to receive thermal5 radiation, and the radiation output end () is operatively connected to the sensor array (). The optical waveguide () is configured to transmit the received thermal radiation as a plurality of simultaneous thermal radiation signals. By decoupling the sensor array from the radiation input end, the relatively large sensor array can be placed in a position optimal for electronic functionality and optimal in view of mechanical constraints, independent of the radiation input position.
