Abstract: A scene is imaged onto a spatial light modulator. The scene is captured by collecting a pan-chromatic image using a pan-chromatic camera. An object in the scene is detected based on one of physical motion or hyperspectral detection. A spectral measurement of the scene is performed using a hyperspectral image spectrometer. A current position, a current positional velocity, and a current positional acceleration of the object is tracked. An estimated position, an estimated positional velocity, and an estimated positional acceleration of the object for a future time is estimated. A current spectrum, a current effective spectral velocity, and a current effective spectral acceleration of the object is tracked. An estimated spectrum, an estimated effective spectral velocity, and an estimated effective spectral acceleration of the object for a future time are estimated.
