9. False pixel correction 
The imager can have up to 4 defective pixels, with either no output or out of specification temperature reading. 
These pixels are identified in the EEPROM table of the sensor and can be read out through the I

C. The defective pixel 
result can be replaced by an interpolation of its neighboring pixels.

The  array  consists  of  768  IR  sensors  (also  called  pixels).  Each  pixel  is  identified  with  its  row  and  column  position  as 
Pix(i,j) where i is its row number (from 1 to 24) and j is its column number (from 1 to 32)
