Abstract: A thermal imaging device having a scan mechanism operable to effectuate sequentially predetermined offsets, each configured between a thermal image of thermal radiations in a defined area on an imaging plane and an array of micro mirrors configured on a substrate. A respective image of a light pattern of a light beam reflected by a light reflection portion of each respective micro mirror in the array can be captured, when a rotation of the respective micro mirror, caused by radiation incident on a radiation absorption surface of the respective micro mirror, is stabilized at a respective offset. After computing a respective measurement of intensity measured by the respective micro mirror based on the respective image captured for the respective offset, a processor computes measurements of intensity of radiation in sub-areas of the thermal image, from measurements of intensity for the predetermined offsets, to generate a high resolution output.

Abstract: A radiation imaging apparatus includes an imaging surface; a light source; and an array of micro mirrors that rotate via radiation absorbed in the micro mirrors and reflect light from the light source to generate a distribution of reflected light on the imaging surface. The array first micro mirrors and second micro mirrors. The first micro mirrors have a first structure and the second micro mirrors have a second structure different than the first structure. The second structure is configured to correct for one or more environmental influences on the radiation imaging apparatus. A photodetector captures an image of the distribution of reflected light on the imaging surface. A processor is coupled to the photodetector. A communication interface is coupled with the processor; and a computing device is located separately from the radiation imaging apparatus and in communication with the communication interface.

The apparatuses can include a micro-mirror chip having a plurality of light reflecting surfaces, an image sensor having an imaging surface, and a beamsplitter unit located between the micro-mirror chip and the image sensor. The beamsplitter unit includes a plurality of beamsplitters aligned along a horizontal axis that is parallel to the micro-mirror chip and the imaging surface. The beamsplitters implement the sequential beam splitting. Because of the structure of the beamsplitter unit, the height of the arrangement of the micro-mirror chip, the beamsplitter unit, and the image sensor is reduced such that the arrangement can fit within a mobile device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses having an array of micro mirrors that rotate according to absorbed radiation and reflect light to generate light spots. In a first setting, a processor obtains an image of the light spots, determines positions of the light spots using a computationally efficient but less accurate method to calculate the intensities of radiation directed at the micro mirrors, and provides the calculated radiation. In a second setting, the processor does not determines the position; and the image is transmitted to a separate computing device to determine positions of the light spots using a computationally intensive but more accurate method to calculate the intensities of radiation directed at the micro mirrors. The system can dynamically switch between the first setting and second setting without a need to adjust hardware.
