Initial Performance Data of a Portable Scene Projector

摘要

To date the majority of infrared scene projector development has centered around the creation of devices that provide a large dynamic range with seemingly unlimited scene generation capability using a myriad of ancillary hardware. These devices provide a wide range of simulation capability but do so at the expense of system complexity, size, and at a considerable financial investment. In an attempt to provide an alternative to this expensive type of system, a small low cost alternative was developed to provide moderate levels of infrared scene projection capability to a broader range of potential users and their test environments. A cursory look at the performance of the device and a brief overview of the system are presented within the confines of this paper.
