Abstract

The Fanbeam Spectral Imager (FSI) system is under development as a tool for mine countermeasures, however, the system has potential for a variety of additional underwater remote sensing needs. Characteristics common to each intended application include high area coverage rate acquisition and 3D spatial by spectral data. The FSI system has been designed around a modular approach which utilizes separated illumination and detection modules to achieve a wide combined field-of-regard, while also providing reduction in common volume backscatter. The modularity and desired sensitivity have driven the optical and system design. This paper will detail the modular elements of the FSI design.
