<title>Dynamic infrared scene projection technologies under the microscope</title>

Abstract

Over the past five years there has been steady development in the field of dynamic infrared scene generation (DIRSP), to the point where the first generation of dynamic infrared scene projectors can now be subjected to critical analysis. In this paper, the specific areas of optical projection validity, spectral emissivity and temperature resolution are discussed in relation to the viability of the DIRSP systems to which they apply.
