Provided according to an embodiment of the present invention is a device for managing the environment of a breeding farm, the device comprising: an imaging unit for capturing a thermal image of the inside of a breeding farm; an object detection unit for detecting an object from the captured image; an area division unit for dividing the captured image into multiple areas; a filtering unit for extracting, from the divided areas, a second area except a first area where the object is detected; and a control unit for comparing the temperature of the second area with a reference temperature to detect an abnormal situation.

A system having a washroom controller configured to communicate with one or more hygiene dispensers in the washroom; a thermal sensor configured detect thermal events at the entrance and communicate data describing the thermal events to the washroom controller; and a data processing apparatus configured to access the data from the washroom controller and analyze the data to determine a number of thermal events over a given time period and a number of dispenses from the at least one of the one or more hygiene dispensers.

A multispectral or thermal imager comprising a lens assembly, an array of IC chips that is arranged in a field of view of the lens assembly, and a filter assembly comprising one or more wavelength filters. The filter assembly comprises a respective wavelength filter for at least one of the three or more rows of IC chips. At least one wavelength filter is transparent in a portion of a wavelength range that passes through the lens assembly. The filter assembly is configured such that radiation of the same wavelength range passes to the rows of IC chips in the pair of non-adjacent rows, and such that the wavelength range that passes to the rows in the pair of non-adjacent rows is different from a wavelength range that passes to the one or more rows other than the pair of non-adjacent rows.

A method of detecting a reflection in a first thermal image captured by a thermal image sensor and, a second image is captured by a visible light sensor, near infrared sensor, or short-wave infrared sensor having a field of view which overlaps a field of view of the thermal image. A relationship between coordinates in the thermal image and the second image is determined. A first object is detected in a first position in the thermal image. A candidate image area in a second position in the second image is analysed to determine if anx 10 object equivalent to the first object is present, the second position corresponding to the first position according to the relationship between the coordinates in the thermal image and the second image. In response to a determination that there is no equivalent object in candidate image area, it is determined that first object is a reflection.

An extended field-of-view near-to-eye display system provides for AR/MR image viewing over about a 180? FOV. The display system may include a multiplicity of display panels per eye of a user and may include both high- and low-resolution display capabilities. The high-resolution displays may be positioned in front of the user's eyes in their primary visual field while the low-resolution displays may be positioned so as to be seen by the user's peripheral vision. The low-resolution displays provide cueing information to the user out to the limit of visual perception (for each eye), placing encoded light and movement in the periphery of the user's vision for enhanced situational awareness.

Described herein are systems and methods for detecting a stress level of a user. In one embodiment, a system includes an inward-facing head-mounted thermal camera (CAM) and a computer. CAM takes thermal measurements of a region on a periorbital area (TH.sub.ROI1) of the user. The computer generates feature values based on TH.sub.ROI1, and utilizes a model to detect the stress level based on the feature values. The model was trained based on: previous TH.sub.ROI1 taken while the user was under elevated stress, and other previous TH.sub.ROI1 taken while the user was not under elevated stress. Some embodiments may utilize additional thermal cameras that take thermal measurements of other regions on the face, which may be utilized to detect the stress level.
