Abstract
Continuing technological advances and market demand have led the manufacturers of thermographic equipment to try to achieve ever better performance. These developments are, of course, led by the needs of the armed forces. They include improvement such as the diamond cutting of optical components, multilayer coating of optical surfaces, the use of multi-element detectors, thermoelectric or Stirling-cycle cryogenic cooling of detectors and digital signal acquisition and processing. Each manufacturer uses one or several of these technologies.
