Nonconventional concept for continuous reproduction of target movement

We demonstrate a novel concept, to the best of our knowledge, for reproduction of the target movement without the frame-by-frame display technique elaborated by the Lumiere brothers. The specially designed elements-apodizing filters with axially quadratic transmittance of radiation, are used to continually record a target position change in time. The recording system deals with nonmatrix detectors and requires only one-step conversion of light energy into an electrical signal to monitor the target under study. The concept makes it possible to develop new techniques for night vision in the near-infrared and thermal spectra. The path and speed of a bouncing and receding ball in the computer screen animation are recorded and reproduced in 3D.
