Abstract

Automated test methods have been developed and implemented which provide a high degree of correlation with average manual test results using human observers. The results of this effort are given in this paper using the presently implemented MRT models. New data using the FLIR92 3-D noise model are also presented which offer a more detailed description of sensor noise over previous implementations. This improves the accuracy of automated MRT and will facilitate testing of scanning time delay and integration (TDI) and staring array thermal imaging sensors in the future.
