MTS Flashcards
Falls in mid wave spectrum
Infrared (IR)
2,000 - 5,000 NM
Detects small temperature differences
Infrared (IR)
A measure of how well an object radiates thermal energy
Emissivity
Has the same optical path as DTV
Low light television
Therefore cannot be fused with DTV
LLTV lives In the ______ spectrum
NIR
Near infrared
700-900 NM
Transmits a beam of energy to the target to guide laser guided munitions and or provides more accurate ranging data
Laser rangefinder designator
LRD
Marks a target location for users of night vision devices. Visible to pilot and sensor operator with the use of the MTS LLTV
Laser target marker
LTM
Sensor that does not need visible light
IR does not require light
Most important external factor affecting the quality of an IR image
Humidity
In IR manual mode what is adjusted when using iris lever
Gain and level
In manual DTV mode what settings are adjusted when using the iris lever
Brightness and contrast
Which camera mode is susceptible to haze, dust, clouds etc
DTV
If your eye can’t see through it the DTV can’t either
Best camera to see lights at night
LLTV
On the enerdyne encoder pull down menu what will change the level of control settings (refresh rates)
Q factor control settings
Best way to improve upon picture due to humidity, haze, smoke, dust or precipitation
Reduce the slant range
