Abstract

Various techniques are disclosed to reduce the effect of reflected infrared radiation on cooled thermal imaging systems. In one example, a system includes an integrated dewar cooler assembly (IDCA) configured to maintain an interior volume at a constant temperature. The system also includes a thermal imager disposed within the interior volume and configured to capture thermal images. The system also includes an optical element external to the IDCA and configured to provide reflected infrared radiation in a uniform distribution over a field of view of the thermal imager in response to emitted infrared radiation from the thermal imager. Additional methods, devices, and systems are also provided.
