  • Abstract
    This paper describes a unique implementation of an optical-in/optical-out focal-plane processor with improved performance and increased control over the output that uses differential difference amplifiers and a clocked-analog scheme. This is accomplished on a single chip and represents a step toward creating a low-power, compact, visual processing system
