An electro-optic, EO, sensor , comprising: an objective optical system configured to form an image within a field of view; a spatial light modulator comprising an array of addressable elements to independently and selectively attenuate optical radiation within different portions of the field; an optical focusing array comprising at least four optical focusing elements that decompose the field of view into at least four sub-fields, each said sub-field corresponding to a plurality of spatial light modulator, SLM, addressable elements ; a sub-field directing array configured to tilt the selected optical radiation in each said sub-field by a tilt angle, in a first tilt mode said sub-field directing array configured to provide at least four different tilt angles; a focusing optic configured to focus the optical radiation at a common image plane, in said first tilt mode said focusing optic being configured to direct the tilted optical radiation to form at least four spatially separated sub-regions at the common image plane , each said sub-region corresponding to one or more sub-fields; and a multi-cell imaging detector positioned at or near the common image plane, each said cell comprising at least one pixel element configured to convert incident optical radiation into an electrical signal, in said first tilt mode each said sub-region being mapped to a different detector cell, wherein the number of optical focusing elements is greater than the number of sub-regions, in said first tilt mode said sub-field directing array is configured to provide tilt angles so that the focusing element directs non-blocked optical radiation from multiple sub-fields to substantially overlap in each said sub-region at the common image plane, each said sub-field mapped to only one said sub-region. an objective optical system configured to form an image within a field of view; a spatial light modulator comprising an array of addressable elements to independently and selectively attenuate optical radiation within different portions of the field; an optical focusing array comprising at least four optical focusing elements that decompose the field of view into at least four sub-fields, each said sub-field corresponding to a plurality of spatial light modulator, SLM, addressable elements ; a sub-field directing array configured to tilt the selected optical radiation in each said sub-field by a tilt angle, in a first tilt mode said sub-field directing array configured to provide at least four different tilt angles; a focusing optic configured to focus the optical radiation at a common image plane, in said first tilt mode said focusing optic being configured to direct the tilted optical radiation to form at least four spatially separated sub-regions at the common image plane , each said sub-region corresponding to one or more sub-fields; and a multi-cell imaging detector positioned at or near the common image plane, each said cell comprising at least one pixel element configured to convert incident optical radiation into an electrical signal, in said first tilt mode each said sub-region being mapped to a different detector cell, wherein the number of optical focusing elements is greater than the number of sub-regions, in said first tilt mode said sub-field directing array is configured to provide tilt angles so that the focusing element directs non-blocked optical radiation from multiple sub-fields to substantially overlap in each said sub-region at the common image plane, each said sub-field mapped to only one said sub-region. <EOS>
