EZ*IR simulates IR signatures of scenes and objects in real time based on rigorous, deterministic, physical, thermodynamic and radiation principles.

• Simulating Visual Imagery in a user selectable IR band
• Engineering Design
• IR Image Analysis
  

• User selectable inputs allow precise tailoring of the IR and dynamic characteristics of the object and environment
• Highly accurate results at video frame rates (30 frames/sec.) for real time applications
• Can be used alone or integrated into other real time simulations

• Uses NIMA's Digital Feature Analysis Data (DFAD) to assign thermal features to objects and background materials
• Uses MODTRAN Models for atmospheric features
• Applies the above features to a simulated visual scene and computes gray scale infrared intensity values on a frame-by-frame basis
• Uses the above IR values to "paint" a simulated infrared scene, as it would be displayed by an IR imaging sensor such as a FLIR
• Uses innovative data management schemes to achieve real time IR scene generation
• Uses internal data taps to extract simulated spectral information at any point in the reflected or emitted radiant exitance paths
