Abstract
This paper introduces a compact optronic processor prototype that has the capability to instantaneously generate SAR images. This real-time processor is light weight, low power consuming and small in size, the design being specifically targeted for on-board SAR image processing. SAR images are typically processed electronically applying dedicated Fourier transformations. This may be performed optically at the speed of light, however. The optronic processor architecture provides inherent parallel computing capabilities for fast SAR processing. Indeed, SAR images have been generated from ENVISAT / ASAR raw data. A review of the design of the optronic processor prototype and an analysis of the SAR images it produces are presented.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
