1. Apparatus comprising:

  • a first sensor of an array of sensors to detect radiation and to output a first image signal based on the radiation detected by the first sensor; and

    offset correction circuitry to compensate errors in at least the first image signal and to output at least a corrected first image signal, wherein the offset correction circuitry includes means for providing at least one time-varying compensation signal that is added to the first image signal to generate the corrected first image signal;

    wherein the apparatus comprises a plurality of sensors including the first sensor, the plurality of sensors outputting respective image signals based on the radiation detected by each sensor of the plurality of sensors, and wherein the means for providing at least one time-varying compensation signal includes means for providing, a different time-varying compensation signal for each of at least two sensors of the array of sensors.
