Target searching and tracking photoelectric systems are widely used in civil and military fields. Achieving both efficient search and fine-observation imaging while minimizing the volume and weight of the system is the most concerning problem. In this paper, a dual-mode integrated optical system is proposed, which shares large size components between large field of view (FOV) search module and high-resolution tracking module by using the Biconic Zernike freeform mirrors. Compared with the traditional searching and tracking system utilizing multi-camera matching, this scheme significantly reduces the volume and weight of the remote sensing payload. At the orbit altitude of 500 km, this proposed system has a swath of 87.5 km with a ground resolution of 10 m in search mode. In tracking mode, it can observe an area of 19 km(2) with a ground resolution of 1 m. It can meet the requirements of wide-area search and focus tracking simultaneously, providing a feasible scheme for the lightweight design of space optical cameras.
