<p>THz detection equipment having a scanning mechanism designed to scan a field of view (FoV) 100 in relation to THz detectors is combined with an optical camera 175 so that the THz field of view can be steered in accordance with the output of the camera. Steering can be provided automatically using an algorithm or manually for example using a joystick. The apparatus comprises optical camera 175 with field of view 170, THz scanner 195 with movable mirror 105 for steering the received THz signal to detectors 115, and control means 125. The THz image 134 can be moved around an image 133 from the camera. Also disclosed is a scanning mechanism for scanning the THz FoV, comprising a rotatable mirror and support structures and drive mechanisms.</p> |
