A simulated infrared model board
Abstract
Martin Marietta Aerospace has built a model board that simulates infrared imagery for aircraft windscreen and sensor displays in its Simulation and Test Laboratory. The simulation uses an image isocon TV camera with a Farrand optical probe; the video output is 525 or 875-line monochrome forward-looking IR (FLIR) imagery. This paper outlines the design objectives, discusses the appearance of the simulated FLIR imagery on the displays, and describes the techniques used in constructing and painting the model board.
