Next-Gen Laser Spot Tracker Module
The Next-Gen Laser Spot Tracker Module is a compact tracking solution for missile and defense platform applications requiring extended acquisition range and robust anti-sunlight performance. Its five-channel architecture uses adaptive noise thresholding to maintain sensitivity across changing ambient light levels, with anti-blinding protection and overcurrent circuitry across all quadrants.
The system offers first, last and peak pulse-detection logic as well as full-duplex RS422 or RS485 communications and automatic or manual multi-stage gain control. It can be provided as a board-level module or as a ready-to-use optical assembly that can be easily integrated into a variety of target platforms.
