1. A system for adaptively imaging a scene, comprising: (a) a digital light processing apparatus adapted for controllably reflecting an image of said scene in at least a first direction to thereby reflect an intensity modulated image of said scene in at least said first direction; (b) an image detector, optically coupled to said digital light processing apparatus along said first direction of reflection, for detecting said intensity modulated image of said scene and generating corresponding detected image data, and (c) an image data processor, coupled to said image detector and receiving said detected image data therefrom, and coupled to said digital light processing apparatus, for processing said detected image data into control data, and providing said control data to said digital light processing apparatus for adaptive control thereof.
