  2. Outline • Frame • Overview on the LIBPIR library • First results • Future work • Perspectives

  3. Frame • Since more than 10 years, CS works on optronic projects in different context (MWPS [maritime security], Basirn [IR images data base], Sypir, …) • 3 years ago, CS has decided to invest on the development of a calculation library for predicting performances of optronic sensor • LIBPIR is the pedestal of a future PREDIR • First version of LIBPIR has just been completed by CS with the help of DRDC Valcartier and ERM • SMARTI : computational module developped by DRDC (Defence R&D Canada) including MODTRAN • OSMOSIS : opensource library developped by ERM (Royal Military Academy of Belgium) • It is currently integrated in the French Navy TDA « PSAD » by DCNS group • PSAD will provide the future french frigate FREMM with AC/EM/IR sensor performance assessment

  4. Overview on the LIBPIR library (2/2)

  5. LIBPIR Calculation components • SMARTI (DRDC-Valcartier) • Spectral and wideband CK transmittance & radiance • MODTRAN molecular extinctions (CK) • Marine surface layer model • MODTRAN and DRDC aerosol models • DRDC accurate refracted path calculation • Lambert and Sea surface (DRDC analytical model) BRDF • Reference: DENIS DION • Osmosis (ERM) • Open-source target surface temperature Modeling Software • Fast and robust software • Validation : CUBI project • Reference: FABIAN LAPIERRE or www.osmosis-project.org
