    摘要: This application relates to a method and an imaging system for providing an infrared image of an object. The system comprises an optical element configured to capture infrared radiation from the object. The system also comprises an infrared sensing module and a processing unit. The infrared sensing module comprises a plurality of infrared detectors, each configured to receive the infrared radiation from the object after passage through the optical element and generate a measurement signal from the received infrared radiation. The processing unit is coupled to the infrared sensing module and configured to convert the measurement signals into temperature data associated with the object for providing the infrared image. In addition, the system comprises a shutter assembly disposed between the infrared sensing module and the optical element. The shutter assembly is configured to selectively pass the infrared radiation from the object through to the infrared sensing module. The shutter assembly comprises a temperature controller configured to adjust a temperature of the shutter assembly. The proposed method and system provide a simple calibration mechanism for an infrared imaging system.
