Abstract

With the development and widespread availability of computer graphics cards, complex infrared scenes can now be readily generated for application in real-time hardware-in-the-loop simulations. It is important that the best efforts are made to ensure that the scenes are radiometrically valid, to the level where the operation of the imaging infrared unitunder- test can be properly emulated. In this paper we describe the techniques we employ to ensure radiometric validity within our real-time aircraft and boat simulation applications of current interest.
