Abstract
A wide field imaging system having high precision and resolution is disclosed herein. The wide field of regard imaging system 10 of the present invention is operative to provide a composite digital representation of a scene within a field of regard. The system 10 of the present invention includes a sensor arrangement 12 for generating first and second digital representations of first and second framed regions within the field of regard. A scene correlator 18 processes the first and second digital representations to generate offset parameters indicative of the relative locations of the first and second framed regions within the field of regard. The offset parameters are used to combine the first and second digital representations within a frame store memory 20 to synthesize the composite digital representation of the scene.
