Abstract

See full text

An Array of detectors can be configured to be read as separate detectors, or to be connected into larger groups, e.g. groups of four (a 2.times.2 array). This allows the formation of a relatively high definition image, and a much faster formation of a lower resolution image. This may be used with in an automobile to control deployment of safety airbags in accordance with a drivers position relative to the airbags. Preferably the array is a 64.times.64 array of thermal detectors.
