  • Abstract
    CEA-Leti has developed a real-time reflection imaging system: it combines illumination by QCL sources and a telescope that focuses the reflected radiation onto a camera that houses an uncooled 320×240 antenna-coupled micro-bolometer array driven by a FPGA card. We present first high resolution images of illuminated surfaces acquired in real-time.
