EDITORIAL REVIEWS


Product Description
The second edition of this text was published in 1999, and since that time many improvements have taken place in instrumentation performance and versatility. This third edition reviews these many changes and how they impact the way thermographers operate, deploy, calibrate, and test the new instruments. In addition, the instruments that have been made essentially obsolete are reviewed as part of the historical evolution of the technology. The purposes of this text are to: - Familiarize potential users of commercial IR sensing and imaging instruments with IR measurement and analysis basics - Provide the practical information needed for users to select the instrument most appropriate for their application - Describe how to perform valid and successful measurements in a variety of applications - Serve as a reference to help thermographers examine the validity of new applications.

Uncooled Thermal Imaging Arrays, Systems, and Applications (SPIE Tutorial Texts in Optical Engineering Vol. TT51)

Uncooled Thermal Imaging Arrays, Systems, and Applications (SPIE Tutorial Texts in Optical Engineering Vol. TT51)
by Paul W. Kruse (Author)

The development of uncooled infrared focal plane arrays began with the military's need to see the battlefield at night without any form of illumination. While the early arrays involved use of cryogenic systems, a new class of detection mechanisms that didn't require crygenic operation was developed in the United States in the 1980s. The author has been involved in development of this technology since then. This book is an introduction for both professionals and students. It covers uncooled...

Thermal Infrared Characterization of Ground Targets and Backgrounds, Second Edition (SPIE Tutorial Texts in Optical Engineering, Vol. TT70)
by Pieter A. Jacobs (Author)

This new edition updates the technologies that deal with the characterization of the thermal infrared radiation contrast between ground targets and backgrounds. Samples have been updated to comply with the current status of technology in sensor systems and countermeasures. New topics on mine detection and polarization have been included, and the section covering multispectral camouflage of personnel has been extended. The basic principles and meteorological parameters are presented, followed by...
