SHORTWAVE INFRARED
Low-Power Solid-State SWIR Imaging
Research on a solid-state shortwave infrared approach intended as an alternative to conventional image-intensifier architecture.
IMAGE FUSION
Thermal & Reflective Fusion
Research describing multiplicative fusion of thermal and reflective imagery and examples showing complementary scene information.
IMAGER PERFORMANCE
NVThermIP & SScamIP
Technical briefs describing night-vision, thermal, and solid-state camera image-processing models and their use as imager design and evaluation tools.
ADVANCED IMAGING
Plane Wave & HSAAI
Explore RH/V’s existing technology pages for Plane Wave Imager and HSAAI Active Imager technical material.
SWIR GOGGLE
Low-Power Solid-State Replacement for Image Intensifiers
The supplied SWIR research describes a low-power solid-state imaging approach intended to replace conventional image-intensifier architectures. The paper covers detector, readout, display, and goggle configuration concepts.
IMAGE FUSION
Using Color Vision Feature Generation to Implement Thermal and Reflective Fusion
The supplied research presents multiplicative fusion as a computationally simple method for combining features from thermal and reflective imagery. Examples demonstrate how the fused result can preserve complementary information from the constituent images.
IMAGER PERFORMANCE MODELING
NVThermIP & SScamIP
The supplied NVThermIP material describes the Night Vision Thermal and Image Processing Model and the Solid-State Camera and Image Processing Model. The IP models are presented as tools for evaluating scene-rendering capability and assessing the effects of imager design parameters, targets, and viewing conditions.
