Abstract

Extensible architecture systems and methods are provided. An imaging system includes a front end (FE) and back end (BE) module. The FE module includes a thermal imager to capture video data representing thermal images of a scene, logic device to process the video data, sensor interface circuit to transmit the video data to the logic device, and FE interface circuit to transmit FE output video data generated based on the processed video data. The BE module includes a BE interface circuit to receive the FE output video data via the FE interface circuit. The BE module further includes a processor to generate a video output based on the FE output video data, and an input/output circuit(s) to interface with an input/output component(s) of the imaging system. The BE interface circuit, processor, and input/output circuits are provided as a system-on-module.
