Abstract: The calibration/verification system and method for gas imaging infrared cameras standardizes the procedures to objectively and consistently check performance of gas imaging infrared cameras. This system includes a background board maintaining a uniform temperature, a target cell filled with a target compound and disposed in front of the background board, a reference cell filled with a reference compound and disposed in front of the background board, and an analyzer coupled to the camera that captures images of the gas cell and the reference cell. The analyzer compares the intensity difference and the temperature difference of rays passing through the target cell and reference cell to a reference relationship data of a quality control chart to determine whether the camera is in a working condition. The method is further extended to provide a quantitative measurement of a hydrocarbon plume from a gas imaging infrared camera.

Abstract: A method and apparatus measuring temperature of a steel sheet. A reference plate including a temperature controller is disposed opposite to the steel sheet. The reference plate temperature of the reference plate is measured by a contact thermometer. A radiation pyrometer is trained on the steel sheet at an angle such that alternate reflection of radiation energy by the reference plate and the objective steel sheet occurs once or twice. The radiosity of the steel sheet is measured by the radiation pyrometer. A temperature obtained by converting the radiosity into a temperature of a blackbody that radiates energy equivalent to the radiosity is used as a radiosity temperature. The temperature controller executes a control operation to make the temperature of the reference plate coincide with the radiosity temperature. The radiosity temperature is used as the temperature of the steel sheet.

Abstract: A method detects a loss of calibration of a thermal imaging radiometer including an array of imaging microbolometers and a gauge microbolometer. The detection method includes applying a first and a second electrical stimulation to the gauge microbolometer to bring it to a first and a second predetermined temperature, followed by measuring an ohmic responsivity of the gauge microbolometer that is representative of a difference between the first and second electrical stimulations. The measured ohmic responsivity is compared with a reference ohmic responsivity, such that a loss of calibration is signaled whenever the measured and reference ohmic responsivities differ by more than a predetermined threshold. A correction method includes steps of the detection method, to yield a corrected voltage response function for each imaging microbolometer. Advantageously, the methods involve probing the electrical response of the gauge microbolometer without requiring thermoregulated blackbody calibrations sources.

Abstract: In an evaluation device for determining a measurement value at a component, power is supplied to the component during readout of the measurement value. A controller serves to determine the power supplied to the component during the readout. The measurement value determined by the reader is corrected by a compensator while using the power determined by the controller, so as to obtain a corrected measurement value freed from any effects caused by the power supplied.

Abstract: An infrared imaging system having functionality for maintaining image quality in the presence of temperature drift of the system. Such functionality is applied repetitively to maintain image quality of a target scene, yet without continuous actuation of a shutter of the system. The functionality of the imaging system results from implementing an imager algorithm. In use, the imager algorithm functions with a calibration curve created for the imaging system, with the curve comprising a plot of system output versus target scene temperature.
