Abstract
A pyroelectric vidicon system that converts a still infrared image into tmal and a consequent visible image that is free of flicker or image motion. The required changes of temperature patterns on the retina of the vidicon to observe still images is provided by an optico-mechanical device having reflecting surfaces in which one of the reflecting surfaces moves the infrared image over the retina and another of the reflecting surfaces compensates for this movement by simultaneously moving the visible image projected from a closed circuit television monitor which is viewed by an observer as a still image.
