Abstract:
A charge-coupled device array, comprised of elements arranged in one or more columns, and a moving lens positioned between the array and object to be imaged on the array are incorporated in an imaging system such as an aerial reconnaissance camera. The lens is moved relative to the column(s) of the array at the same speed that signals in the array corresponding to what is imaged thereon translate along the elements thereof such that a given point of the object is imaged on each element of a column.
