Aug 1, 2012 — Infrared camera technology spans a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum, with results that vary with the waveband. Although there is some overlap of applications between the different infrared subbands and associated sensor technologies, it is...
Something in the air
Jul 1, 2012 — The recent article on airglow (“The Night Glows Brighter in the Near-IR,” April 2012) contains misleading statements and a generally sloppy treatment of radiometric units of measure. Some behind-the-scenes math by the authors and more...
The Night Glows Brighter in the Near-IR
Apr 1, 2012 — The night sky is never absolutely dark, even after removing the influence of starlight and diffused sunlight from the other side of the globe. Spectral irradiance, caused by airglow, is several times stronger in the 900- to 1700-nm band than in the...
Multicamera Systems Capture Every Angle
Oct 1, 2011 — Recent technology advances, ranging from very wide fields of view to invisible wave bands and affordable ultralow-noise devices, are creating fascinating new applications for multicamera systems. It’s an exciting time in the imaging...
