Electro-Optical Imaging System Performance (Spie Press Monograph)

This updated edition is a consolidation of reference material needed to design, analyze, and evaluate imaging system performance. The information is integrated from a wide range of subjects in which the analyst must be conversant: target characterization, atmospheric effects, optics, detectors, electronics, displays, and human perception of image quality. The material could otherwise only be obtained by sifting through dozens of textbooks and journal articles. Although emphasis is placed on infrared systems, the principles apply to all imaging systems operating in the visible region of the spectrum.Gerald C. Holst is the author of 'Electro-Optical Imaging System Performance (Spie Press Monograph)', published 2003 under ISBN 9780819446602 and ISBN 0819446602.
