Non-Destructive Inspection by Infrared Imaging Spectroscopy. Phase 1

Abstract

The objective of the Phase I effort was to investigate the applicability of infrared imaging spectroscopy to multiple Non-Destructive Inspection (NDI) applications. The program demonstrated object discrimination using an algorithm which post-processes an infrared spectral image of two apparently identical objects by filtering across the spectral radiance distribution of the scene. The project also addressed three major design issues concerning the transition of Surface Optics's existing visible spectral radiometer to an infrared version. Non-destructive, Spectral, Imaging, Radiometer, Discrimination, Identification, Test, Infrared.
