Abstract From the Canadian patent

High-resolution imaging systems are provided. In one embodiment an imaging system based on a Cassegrain or Schmidt-Cassegrain objective with coaxial primary and secondary mirrors is provided with a microdisplacement mechanism acting on the secondary mirror to displace the image on a focusing array. In another embodiment two co-axial Cassegrain-type objectives are provided one within the other with a common focal plane array which therefore detects combined wide field-of-view and narrow field-of-view images.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 28, 2005 and granted February 12, 2013. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 28, 2025.
  • Certificates of supplementary protection extend only drug patents, and it isn't classified as one.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
