Abstract
The present invention relates to scanning devices, for example those used in image scanning, observation and watching systems or else those used for example in aerial reconnaissance. The invention consists essentially in causing the mirror M to rotate about an axis distinct from the perpendicular to the plane of the rotating beam. In particular, this axis of rotation is set to an angle with respect to the perpendicular to the plane of the rotating beam, this angle being itself a function of the angle of incidence of the light beam.
