Abstract

At present, the resolution of cooled type infrared thermal imaging systems is generally low. In order to realize longdistance target detection, it is necessary to design a high-performance and high resolution infrared thermal imaging system. The methods of improving resolution both domestic and overseas are discussed and compared. A method of fast imaging in four quadrants by using a micro-scanner to drive an optical lens is proposed. The method has high control precision, simple process and easy realization. Four low-resolution images are spliced into one high-resolution infrared thermograph with high imaging quality. The infrared thermal imaging system designed by this method can search, locate and track targets tens of kilometers away with outstanding indexes and excellent performance.
