6.7. How to NUC
The NUC procedure document (ref. DP001U) can be found on the CD-ROM
that is shipped with the camera. This document contains important
information on why and how to perform a NUC correction.
The main difference between performing a NUC on a NIR camera and a
MW/LW IR camera lies in the light source to be considered. Typical light
sources in the Near/Short-Infrared are Integrating Spheres. An Integrating
Sphere is an optical device consisting of a hollow cavity with its interior
coated for reflectivity optimization. The relevant point is that the light
emitted by the sphere presents a high uniformity level.
The information found below is a quick tutorial on how to NUC your SC2500
camera. It is not meant to replace the DP001U-NUC Procedure document
which deals extensively with the NUC process.
Here are the basic steps to perform a NUC:
- Set-up the camera :
a. Mount any optical device needed (lens, filter),
b. Choose the proper iris aperture (f/#) on the lens (if any)
and focus the lens at a distant object,
c. Choose the proper gain level (High/Low) adapted to your
application,
d. Choose the proper Integration time adapted to your
application.
- A NUC operation is performed by placing the camera in front of a
light source at two different flux output levels, using the software
tools provided by FLIR: ALTAIR & CIRRUS Software.
