Abstract
An improved image intensified, low light level sensor to enable true color images in real-time from a prior art image intensified, low light level device. The device comprises a Bayer pattern in front of the photocathode element and a CCD or CMOS imager that observes or replaces the phosphor layer of the traditional low light level, intensified imager.
Claims4
An apparatus consisting of a low light level camera that produces full true color imagery in real-time without intermittent use of long integrations times or without reference to other sensors observing the same scenes with long integration times by a Bayer pattern placed in front of the photocathode of the image intensifier tube of the traditional low light level imager.
