Infrared Thermal Imaging Technique: Advances and Prospects,

Abstract

Rapid advances have been made recently in the development and applications of infrared thermal imaging technology used primarily for military purposes. In this article, advances in infrared thermal imaging are introduced in brief, and discussion is focused on technical progress in the field of infrared focal plane arrays (IRFPA). Also, the trend for infrared thermal imaging technique to expand rapidly from purely military use to civil applications is demonstrated. (KAR) P. 4
