The laser absorption spectrometer (LAS) is an airborne instrument able to perform remote measurement of trace atmospheric gases. The instrument uses a pair of carbon dioxide laser-heterodyne receiver systems that are directed downward from an airplan

The ambient air pollutants ozone, nitric oxide, and ethylene have been monitored in the Pasadena area with a bistatic ir laser apparatus. These pollutants were measured with a differential absorption technique using selected wavelengths in the 9.5-mi

An optoacoustic detector or spectrophone has been used to perform detailed measurements of the absorptivity of mixtures of water vapor in air. A C(12) O(2)(16) laser was used as the source, and measurements were made. at forty-nine different waveleng

A method for determination of refractive indices which may be applied to thin flat plates of optical materials is considered. It is particularly suited for use with materials whose refractive indices are large (1.8), but is not limited in the range o

A major drawback of optical correlator systems is the poor quality of correlation signals. Background noise is one of the many sources of false correlation peaks. However, by reconstructing an input scene with the object's amplitude function, an obje

A typical hierarchy for a general object recognition problem consists of object detection, classification and identification. This paper establishes necessary building blocks required for high-speed object recognition applications. An architecture th

A robust optical correlator that is a miniaturized version of the classic Vander-Lugt correlator is developed. The correlator consists of a simple diode laser for illumination and a CMOS photodetector to detect the correlation peak. A set of roof pri

We describe a complex optical system consisting of a 4f optical correlator with programmable filters that operates at video rates. Filter generation storage and management is under control of a digital on-board computer.

The global winds measurement application of coherent Doppler lidar requires intensive study of the global climatology of atmospheric aerosol backscatter at infrared wavelengths. An airborne backscatter lidar is discussed, which has been developed to
