    Abstract: An infrared camera system is provided to detect absorption of infrared radiation in a selected spectral bandwidth. In one example, an infrared camera system includes a lens adapted to receive infrared radiation from a survey scene comprising one or more gasses. The infrared camera system also includes a focal plane array comprising a plurality of quantum well infrared photo detectors (QWIPs). The QWIPs are tuned to detect a limited spectral bandwidth of the infrared radiation corresponding to at least a portion of an infrared absorption band of the one or more gasses. The infrared camera system also includes an optical band pass filter positioned substantially between the lens and the focal plane array. The optical band pass filter is adapted to filter the infrared radiation to a wavelength range substantially corresponding to the limited spectral bandwidth of the QWIPs before the infrared radiation is received by the focal plane array.

    Abstract: In a system having a thermal backdrop (106) and a thermal illuminator (102), the thermal backdrop includes a body having a top face; a contrast phantom (114) positioned above the top face and aligned substantially parallel with the top face; and a reflective layer (112) located between the body and the contrast phantom and aligned substantially parallel with the top face. The thermal illuminator radiates thermal energy (104) in a first direction towards the contrast phantom; wherein the first direction is aligned with the top face such that when the thermal energy is radiated in the first direction a first portion of the thermal energy is absorbed by the contrast phantom and a second portion (116) is reflected by the reflective layer towards a millimeter-wave camera (118) in a second direction. Furthermore, the contrast phantom has a plurality of different portions (114A, 114B, 114C, 114D), each portion having a different respective thickness along the first direction.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a link receiver having a detector array configured to receive radiation from a remote communication device, where the detector array includes multiple detectors. Each detector includes a horn receiver configured to capture the radiation using an antenna positioned in or proximate to a throat of the horn receiver, where the antenna is coupled to an antenna load. Each detector also includes a bolometer electrically isolated from the antenna load and in thermal contact with the antenna load. The link receiver could include a terahertz camera. The detector array can be located at a focal plane of an optical system configured to receive the radiation through a specified far-field solid angle. The apparatus could also include a link transmitter configured to generate and transmit second radiation to the remote communication device and/or a communication transmitter/receiver configured to communicate with the remote communication device.

    Abstract: Apparatus and method for thermally mapping a component in a high temperature environment. An optical probe (10) has a field of view (14) arranged to encompass a surface of a component (15) to be mapped. The probe (10) captures infrared (IR) emissions in the near or mid IR band. An optical fiber (16) has a field of view to encompass a spot location (18) on the surface of the component within the field of view (14) of the probe (12). The fiber (16) captures emissions in the long IR band. The emissions in the long IR band are indicative of an emittance value at the spot location. This information may be used to calibrate a radiance map of the component generated from the emissions in the near or mid IR band and thus map the absolute temperature of the component regardless of whether the component includes a TBC.

    Abstract: A route examination system includes a thermographic camera configured to be logically or mechanically coupled with a vehicle that travels along a route. The thermographic camera is also configured to sense infrared radiation emitted or reflected from the route and to generate a sensed thermal signature representative of the infrared radiation that is sensed. The system also includes a computer readable memory device configured to store a designated thermal signature representative of infrared radiation emitted from a segment of the route that is not damaged. The system also includes an analysis processor configured to determine a condition of a first portion of the route relative to other portions of the route at least in part by comparing the sensed thermal signature and the designated thermal signature.
