Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. An optical system configured to output redundant outputs, comprising:
at least one optical device configured to receive an optical signal;
at least one optical transducer, wherein each at least one optical transducer is configured to receive the optical signal from the at least one optical device and convert the optical signal to an electrical signal; and
at least one electronic device configured to receive each electrical signal and output the redundant outputs,
wherein each of the at least one optical device comprises an optical steerer is configured to steer the optical signal to each of the at least one optical transducer one at a time, wherein the optical steerer has a mirrored surface, and
wherein the at least one electronic device comprises a read-out-integrated circuit (ROIC) configured to perform redundant signal processing of outputs of each of the at least one optical transducers.
