Recently updated to 5th Edition, this reference contains all of the material you'll need to design, analyze, and evaluate the performance of imaging systems, and is written for those conversant in target characterization, atmospheric effects, optics, detectors, electronics, displays, or human perception of image quality. Although emphasis is placed on infrared systems, the principles apply to all imaging systems operating in the visible region of the spectrum.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for thermal imagers, July 24, 2003
By 
The focus of this book is on thermal imagers, although occasional tidbits on visual CCD imagers appear. It also covers military equipment going back to the early days. It brings together a wealth of hard-to-find information and the author is very definitely an authority on the subject. Typos appear now and then, and parts of it are difficult to follow. But usually things are well explained, and if not, there's always the internet.

3.0 out of 5 stars uninspired, November 12, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Dreary compendium of IR info, specs and formulas. Limited insight or inspiration. The historical perspective is interesting -- does help understand how terminology evolved from scanned single detectors to staring arrays.
