Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for imaging radio and microwave electromagnetic radiation using a two-dimensional sensor array. A computing system receives a readout signal from one or more of a plurality of frequency sensors, arranged in a two-dimensional array, that have the ability to detect an image of focused radio and microwave frequency radiation. The computing system maps the readout signal of each of the plurality of sensors to a location corresponding to the physical location of the sensor on the two-dimensional array. The computing system converts the readout signal into a computer readable image.
