Inhaltsangabe

This newly revised and updated edition offers a current and complete introduction to the analysis and design of electro-optical (EO) imaging systems. The third edition provides numerous updates and several new chapters including those covering pilotage, infrared search and track, and simplified target acquisition model. The book contains over 800 time-saving equations and includes numerous analyses and designs throughout. It also includes a reference link to a special website prepared by the authors that augments the book in the classroom and serves as an additional resource for practicing engineers. With its comprehensive coverage and practical approach, this is a strong resource for engineers needing a bench reference for sensor and basic scenario performance calculations. It is also an excellent text for upper-level students with an interest in electronic imaging systems.

This book can be used in conjunction with the infrared and electro-optical calculation tools available online at PhotonicsProject.org.

Ronald G. Driggers is a professor at the University of Arizona's College of Optical Sciences and works in the areas of electro-optical and infrared imaging systems. He was the editor in chief of SPIE's flagship journal, Optical Engineering, from 2010-2015 and the editor in chief of the Optical Society of America's journal Applied Optics from 2015-2021.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Ronald Driggers is the superintendent in the Optical Sciences Division of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. He was previously a senior engineer at U.S. Army Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate where he provided electro-optical and infrared research on performance modeling. Dr. Driggers received his Ph.D., M.S., and B.S. from the University of Memphis. Melvin H. Friedman is a senior physicist in the Modeling and Simulation Division of Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate. He is the primary inventor of eight patents and has more than forty years of experience having worked in the fields of nuclear physics, neutron activation analysis, automation, scanning electron microscopy, land-mine detection, development of intelligence gathering sensors, search and the modeling of electro-optical sensors. Dr. Friedman received his Ph.D. degree in physics from Carnegie-Mellon University and M.S. degrees in computer science and electrical engineering from Johns Hopkins University. John W. Devitt is a principal fellow and chief engineer for RVS Tactical Products. He was the director of RVS Engineering with a staff of 275 scientists and engineers. He has the full responsibilities for execution of all engineering objectives including technical, financial, and organizational. His responsibilities on projects that span the full electromagnetic spectrum and major U.S. Department of Defense agencies. These include some of the largest and most significant infrared detector programs including EODAS, 3GEN FLIR, and OPIR. These programs and technologies have broad impact to U.S. objectives and national security. Mr. Devitt received a B.S. in physics from Stony Brook and an M.S. in physics from OSU. He was an instructor for the UCSB Infrared Short Course and the GTRI Infrared Technology Course and a lecturer for the University of Arizona Radiometry and other courses. He has more than 50 publications and more than 20 patents, as well as 3 books, one iPad app, and one iPhone app. He was a primary contributor to the Photonics Project web site (https://photonicsproject.org/). Mr. Devitt was appointed to the National Academy of Sciences in 2014 and was awarded as an MSS Fellow in 2016 and as a Principal Fellow in 2017 at Raytheon.
