Infrared R&D handbook from FLIR

Having first taken the reader through the principles of infrared detection and measurement the publication then compares the different detector types, cooling methods and focal plane array assemblies.

Subsequent sections provide advice on getting the most from an infrared camera, covering subjects such as typical camera measurement functions, emissivity correction and the use of filters to extend the scope of application.

The final chapter addresses recent advances in ultra-speed thermography and in particular the application potential of short integration times and pre-set sequencing and the importance of a fast pixel clock and multiple channels.
