  • Modeling the Imaging Chain of Digital Camerasby Robert D. Fiete

    SPIE 2010; US$ 43.35

    The process by which an image is formed, processed, and displayed can be conceptualized as a chain of physical events called the imaging chain. By mathematically modeling the imaging chain, we can gain insight into the relationship between the camera design parameters and the resulting image quality. The mathematical models can also be used to optimize... more...

  • Ion Implantation and Synthesis of Materialsby Michael Nastasi; James W. Mayer

    Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2007; US$ 119.99

    Ion implantation is one of the key processing steps in silicon integrated circuit technology. This book presents the physics and materials science of ion implantation and ion beam modification of materials. It covers ion-solid interactions used to predict ion ranges, ion straggling and lattice disorder. more...

  • Optical Thin Filmsby James D. Rancourt

    SPIE 1996; US$ 59.50

    Practical, user-oriented reference for engineers who must incorporate and specify coatings for filters, antiglare effects, polarization, or other purposes in optical or electro-optical systems design. It focuses on preparation techniques and characteristics of commercially available products and provides information needed to determine what type of... more...

  • Photon Transferby James R. Janesick

    SPIE 2007; US$ 51.85

    Photon Transfer is designed for a wide audience--from the novice to the advanced user already familiar with the method. For first-time users, the book's primary purpose is to give sufficient guidelines to accurately generate, calibrate, and understand imaging data products through the photon transfer method. The book contains more than 230 figures... more...

  • Medical Infrared Imagingby Nicholas A. Diakides

    CRC Press 2007; US$ 104.95

This book provides coverage ranging from historical background and fundamental concepts to clinical applications, standards, and infrared technology. more...

  • Field Guide to Atmospheric Opticsby Larry C. Andrews

    SPIE 2004; US$ 24.99

    The material in this Field Guide includes a review of classical Kolmogorov turbulence theory, Gaussian-beam waves in free space, and atmospheric effects on a propagating optical wave. These atmospheric effects have great importance in a variety of applications like imaging, free space optical communications, laser radar, and remote sensing. This Guide... more...

  • Field Guide to Image Processingby Khan M. Iftekharuddin; Abdul A. Awwal

    Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE) 2012; US$ 24.99

    Digital imaging is essential to many industries, such as remote sensing, entertainment, defense, and biotechnology, and many processing techniques have been developed over time. This SPIE Field Guide serves as a resource for commonly used image-processing concepts and tools; readers will better understand how to apply these tools to various problems... more...

  • Introduction to Sensors for Ranging and Imagingby Graham Brooker

    The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2009; US$ 119.00

    "This comprehensive text-reference provides a solid background in active sensing technology. It is concerned with active sensing, starting with the basics of time-of-flight sensors (operational principles, components), and going through the derivation of the radar range equation and the detection of echo signals, both fundamental to the understanding... more...
