DESCRIPTION:
The next eleven chapters delve deeply into the elements of infrared technology. Chapter 13 explains the functional relationships between the various system elements and the effects of their interactions when assembled into a system. For those readers having the necessary credentials, Appendix 4 is a guide to the unpublished and classified literature of the infrared.. In Chapter 14 the reader is invited to watch the development of an infrared search system for commercial jet transports. This classic opens with a history of the development of the infrared portion of the spectrum, probes the system engineering process, and then examines the characteristics of the successful system engineer. It contains nearly 1400 annotated references to the infrared literature of the world. The references are carefully arranged, extensively indexed, and does not contain citations to the classified or report literature, a feature appreciated by most readers. Part II contains an in-depth treatment of the applications of infrared techniques to the solution of military, industrial, medical, and scientific problems. The annotations summarize the content, describe the hardware, details its performance and examine the significant results
This book is a classic in the field Jeffrey Lee Pretty much the best book you'll find in the area of infrared system engineering. I just started learning about this field, and it gives a very clear and lucid introduction to this area. I was referred to this book by somebody who has been in the field for a long time and who still uses this book for reference. Though the technology is out-dated, the book is dominated by concepts and is relevant to those trying to understand the arcane field of IR.. Gold standard for the field Brian D. Pendell There's really nothing to say about this product. It is, and has been, the best book on the subject for forever.My main concern is that it does spend a number of pages describing the use of slide rules for computation which are no longer produced. An updated version detailing a computer algorithm would be appreciated. It also seems a little lacking in the mathematical theory, devoting only one chapter to these details.The fundamental difference between .

Austin I am a consultant and frequently need to get up to speed quickly on technical topics related to the projects I support. I asked a fellow optical systems designer what I should read to get smart on IR sensing systems and he simply said "the Hudson book."
