Abstract
A hand-held, battery powered instrument for the determination and recording of the intensity of radiation emitted or reflected by a target in the field in spectral bands from 400 nm to 12 micrometers. Two fields of view, typically 20.degree. and 1.degree., are provided. The pointing accuracy is 0.1.degree. or better. Multiple detectors are controlled by a single shutter. Gain and zero controls are preset, the whole spectral band is sampled in 4 seconds, and the results stored. They are later called up and shown on a liquid crystal display digitized to 9999.
