Abstract
Techniques are provided for facilitating detection threshold determination for infrared imaging systems and methods. In one example, a method includes capturing, by an imaging device, a thermal image of a scene. The method further includes determining temperature difference data indicative of a difference between temperature data of the thermal image associated with a background of the scene and temperature data of the thermal image associated with gas detection. The method further includes determining detection threshold data based on sensitivity characteristics associated with the imaging device and the temperature difference data. The method further includes generating a detection threshold image based on the detection threshold data. Each pixel of the detection threshold image corresponds to a respective pixel of the thermal image and has a value indicative of a detection threshold associated with the respective pixel of the thermal image. Related devices and systems are also provided.
