Explanation
Raw count: The pixel value as delivered by the camera on the digital interface or
as saved in radiometric image files. No correction for object parameters is included.
Depending on the camera model, drift compensation may also not be included.
■
■
Object signal: A calibrated value proportional to the radiation from the object.
This is the detector signal corrected for drift, gain, and offset, including compen-
sation for object parameters. Correct setting of object parameters (reflected ap-
parent temperature, emissivity, object distance, relative humidity, and atmospheric
temperature) is assumed.
■
Temperature: The blackbody temperature of the object when the calibration algo-
rithm based on Planck’s law is applied to the object signal.
