In previous work, we proposed a method for imaging using micro optical electromechanical (MOEM) mirrors. Our solution was to introduce into the imaging sensor optics a 2-D micro-mirror array. This device provides high resolution images with a wide field of view. In this paper, we provide further simulations that validate the functionality of our system design. In addition, we present our first system prototype that can produce an image with higher resolution and support a wider field of view than the image sensor employed in the system.
We present a means for forming images using micromirror arrays. Using an array of 2D tilt mirrors it is possible to create an image
whose resolution is much higher than the number of mirrors. We
present several types of simulations, including images produced by
graphical ray tracing for linear MEMS array of containing 1 and 2
mirrors, and general NxN configurations.
