  • Telescope system
    Patent number: 11163148
    Abstract: A telescope system includes a telescope and a selective shielding unit including at least one member including a passage allowable region for an observation target electromagnetic wave and a passage blocking region for the observation target electromagnetic wave. The telescope includes a position detectable detector that detects the observation target electromagnetic wave on a surface different from a focal plane of the telescope. The selective shielding unit is disposed on a front side of the detector. Patterns of the passage allowable region and the passage blocking region of the at least one member and disposition of the at least one member are set to allow for reconstruction of an observation image based on an image detected in the detector.
