Photocell shadowing technique improves light source detector

Abstract

Lightweight, compact modular system that includes an acquisition photocell is used as a light source tracking detector that exhibits minimum scale factor change with increased light source angle. Photocells of various types, responsive to other portions of the spectrum, could be used to acquire and track infrared, ultraviolet, and other source fluxes.
