    摘要: The present invention provides a temperature control method for a heating element, a night vision system calibration device and a system. The night vision system calibration device includes: a first housing, a heating element and a second housing covering the first housing. The heating element includes a heating area, a shape of the heating area being a shape of a target heating body used when a night vision system is calibrated. The second housing and the first housing form an accommodating cavity, and the heating element is disposed in the accommodating cavity. The second housing is provided with a through hole communicating with the accommodating cavity and adapted to the shape of the heating area, and the heating area is configured to emit infrared radiation through the through hole. In the temperature control method for a heating element, the night vision system calibration device and the system provided in the present invention, a target heating body for a night vision system used when the night vision system is calibrated may be provided, so that the night vision system after fault repair can be calibrated based on the target heating body, thereby improving the accuracy of the night vision system after the fault repair.

    摘要: An extended area “cavity type” blackbody for use as a radiometric reference for imaging systems may have a well in the form of a cube having four sidewalls and a back wall, and open at the front. The temperature of the back wall may be controlled independently of the temperature(s) of the sidewalls. This system may produce infrared radiance closer to an ideal radiator than typical extended area sources. A “simple” blackbody is disclosed, having a source plate with a front emitting surface; a ledge element disposed in front of and below the source plate for heating air in front of the source plate; and (optionally) another ledge element disposed in front of and above the source plate for cooling air in front of the source plate. A housing may support the source plate and ledge element, and a vent may be provided in front of and above the source plate. A resistive heater may be associated with the ledge element; and (optionally) TECs may be associated with the other (cooling) ledge element. Angles of the ledges may be adjustable to optimize the best uniformity for a particular implementation. Temperature control of the ledges may be in unison with or independent from the source plate.

    摘要: An infrared thermographic system configured to detect the temperature of an object including an infrared thermal imaging sensor arranged to collect infrared radiation and construct at least one image from the radiation and a drive support unit arranged to rotate the sensor around an axis of rotation is provided. The imaging sensor is attached to the drive support unit such that upon rotation of the drive support unit, the imaging sensor captures separate areas surrounding the thermographic system. The imaging sensor is arranged to acquire a plurality of separate images such that the combination of the different images forms a continuous panorama of at least 180 degrees about the axis of rotation of the drive support unit. A processing module arranged and/or programmed to determine temperature data of the object from the images acquired by the imaging sensor is also provided.

    摘要: A system and method for thermally calibrating semiconductor process chambers is disclosed. In various embodiments, a first non-contact temperature sensor can be calibrated to obtain a first reading with the semiconductor process chamber. The first reading can be representative of a first temperature at a first location. The first non-contact temperature sensor can be used to obtain a second reading representative of a second temperature of an external thermal radiation source. The second temperature of the external thermal radiation source can be adjusted to a first temperature setting of the external radiation source such that the second reading substantially matches the first reading. Additional non-contact temperature sensor(s) can be directed at the external thermal radiation source and can be adjusted such that the reading(s) of the additional non-contact sensors are calibrated and matched to one another.
