Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de détection d'onde électromagnétique qui comprend une première unité de formation d'image, une unité de progression, une seconde unité de formation d'image et une première unité de détection. La première unité de formation d'image forme une image d'une onde électromagnétique incidente. Une pluralité de pixels le long d'une surface de référence sont disposés dans l'unité de progression. L'unité de progression amène une onde électromagnétique incidente sur la surface de référence provenant de la première unité de formation d'image à progresser dans une première direction. La seconde unité de formation d'image forme une image de l'onde électromagnétique qui a progressé dans la première direction. La première unité de détection détecte l'onde électromagnétique incidente provenant de la seconde unité de formation d'image. L'angle entre l'axe de progression à chaque angle de vue d'une onde électromagnétique qui a traversé la première unité de formation d'image, et l'axe principal de la première unité de formation d'image, se trouve à l'intérieur d'une valeur prescrite.
