Abstract

Trends of increasing the informative content of the thermal imaging channel of optoelectronic observation devices are discussed, and a method of using the properties of the intrinsic polarized thermal radiation from objects to determine their three-dimensional shape is considered. The paper presents a model system for obtaining polarization thermal images and the mathematical model and results of experiments on the production and processing of polarization thermograms of objects and determination of their three-dimensional shape.
