Optoelectronic photodetector (variants)

Abstract

A optoelectronic photo sensor to obtain single mosaic digital photographic images. Photo sensor is designed as a plurality of identical lenses having rows of staggered identical matrices arranged on a common focal surface with the gaps between adjacent matrices not exceeding the length of the effective number of pixels oriented along the row. Said arrangement provides a single large survey field from a plurality of individual matrices. Said design contemplates the use of several small individual lenses instead of one large and expensive lens, as well as many small matrices instead of one large and expensive matrix. The lenses are arranged at an angle to each other with a strictly defined dependence on the focal distance and the length of the gap between matrices in the row, which ensures continuous imaging by individual matrices over the surface surveyed with preset overlapping for subsequent cross-linking of images into one single film.
