Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a system for sweeping a laser beam in a preset pattern, while, at the same time, directing the pattern to any area in a predetermined scanning area. The invention is particularly useful in LADAR applications. In one version of the invention, a series of optical prisms are arranged in concentric tubes so that the prisms have a common optical path. The tubes and, hence, the prisms, may be independently rotated by precision electric motors coupled to gear rings on the tubes.
