DESCRIPTION AND DATA
2.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Bit consists of next primary parts: a body, a lens assembly and a eyepiece assembly. The equipment
comes as shown in Figure 2-1. The figure represents the both 5x and 5x-10x versions of the Bit.
The Bit is a highly light-sensitive device. The Bit sensor (CCD array) reacts to near-infrared and visible
light and converts the received light into electric charges. The controlling circuit converts the entire
contents of the two-dimensional array to a sequence of voltages that are processed into a continuous
analog signal. The Bit displays, as a result, a real-time images corresponding to the scene projected
onto the focal plane of the sensor.
