Abstract

The performance of Infrared System is mainly determined by targets’ infrared radiation characteristic, ambient complex environment’s infrared radiation characteristic and the infrared radiation contrast between them. Meanwhile these factors are also influenced by geography location, weather condition, season and the time of a day. The IR imaging simulation system has the advantage of convenience, safety, lower cost etc. Using computer to simulate complex infrared scene has been more and more popular. In this paper, a new external rendering algorithm is proposed. This paper focuses on the designment and implementation of the external rendering of the complex scene for the IR imaging simulation. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is validated through an example.
