Multi-channel rotating optical interface for data transmission
Apparatus for transmitting multiple channels of data across a rotating interface, such as between an antenna that rotates with respect to a platform, is described. Features of the apparatus include: (1) light emitter elements and light detector elements located on the two bodies that rotate relative to each other; (2) a lens for focusing light from each emitter element onto a corresponding detector element; and (3) an image rotating means which is turned as one of the objects rotates, to derotate the images of the emitter elements that are to be focused on the detector elements
