In recent years, free space optical (FSO) communication has gained significant importance
owing to its unique features: large bandwidth, license free spectrum, high data rate, easy …

A family of fully automated digital whole sky imagers (WSIs) has been developed at the
Marine Physical Laboratory over many years, for a variety of research and military …

Advances in microbolometer detectors have led to the development of infrared cameras that
operate without active temperature stabilization. The response of these cameras varies with …

The energy available in a solar energy powered grid is uncertain due to the weather
conditions at the time of generation. Forecasting global solar irradiance could address this …

Imaging the atmosphere with a thermal infrared camera can yield a rich variety of
information, ranging from the water-vapour content to the spatial distribution of clouds. Such …

The increasing penetration of photovoltaic systems in the power grid makes it vulnerable to
cloud shadow projection. Real-time cloud segmentation in ground-based infrared images is …

Cloud segmentation plays a very important role in astronomical observatory site selection. At
present, few researchers segment cloud in nocturnal all-sky imager (ASI) images. This paper …

The formation and evolution of clouds are associated with their thermodynamical and
microphysical progress. Previous studies have been conducted to collect images using …

Advances in microbolometer long-wave infrared (LWIR) detectors have led to the common
use of infrared cameras that operate without active temperature stabilization, but the …

Long-wave infrared imaging is used for non-invasive assessment of the internal population
of honey bee colonies. The radiometrically calibrated camera signal is related to the number …
