Abstract: This paper will provide an overview of the critical Infrared (IR) projector requirements and specifications for Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) simulations of imaging IR systems and will review the most prominent technologies associated with IR scene projection. Each method will be briefly discussed in terms of physical operation with all relevant advantages and disadvantages being highlighted. A comparison will be provided of the different categories of projection devices for applicability to HWIL simulation.!11
