Baffles and methods for distributed-aperture sensors

摘要

This disclosure includes embodiments of laser-seeking munitions, and methods of constructing laser-seeking munitions. Some embodiments of these munitions comprise a body; one or more sensors; a plurality of lenses coupled to the body and configured to be capable of transmitting light to the one or more sensors. Some embodiments comprise one or more baffles coupled to the plurality of lenses, the one or more baffles configured to substantially block a portion of the plurality of lenses from transmitting light to the one or more sensors. Some embodiments comprise a plurality of optical fibers optically coupled to the sensor(s) and the lense(s), where the fibers are configured to substantially block a portion of each of the plurality of lenses from transmitting light to the one or more sensors.
