A intelligent long-distance infrared fill-light set for illuminating a predetermined target range at least 500 meters away cooperates with an infrared image-acquisition equipment to obtain an image of an illuminated-object, and includes: infrared fill-lights each including an optical lens, optical axis passing through a focus, infrared light sources emitting an infrared beam having a main beam angle, to generate a substantial overlapping area and at least one non-overlapping area when illuminating to the predetermined target range; enabling devices that enable light sources; and a control unit receiving image data acquired by the infrared image-acquisition equipment, for calculating and adjusting the enabling device to locally strengthen or weaken the substantial overlapping area and/or non-overlapping area. Infrared fill-lights are spaced a predetermined distance, so that the human eyes accidentally entering a predetermined dangerous illumination range will not be simultaneously illuminated by infrared beams, thereby avoiding exceeding a Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE).

A wearable device includes: a base to be worn on a head of a user; a first sensor that is provided to the base to be at a distance from a surface of the user's head and measures a first signal relating to a temperature of the surface of the user's head; an estimation circuit that estimates a body temperature of the user based on the first signal; and a display that presents the body temperature of the user estimated by the estimation circuit.

A photosensitive sensor is capable of operating in a global shutter mode and in a rolling shutter mode. The sensor includes at least one pixel with a photosensitive region configured to photogenerate charges. A first transfer gate is configured to transfer photogenerated charges from the photosensitive region to a transfer node. A source-follower transistor is configured to transmit a reading signal to a read node, in the global shutter mode, in a manner controlled by a potential of the photogenerated charges on the transfer node. A second transfer gate is configured to transfer the photogenerated charges from the photosensitive region to the read node in the rolling shutter mode.

Techniques for facilitating temperature compensation are provided. In one example, an infrared imaging system includes a focal plane array configured to capture radiation from a scene and generate image data based on the radiation. The focal plane array further captures radiation from an element associated with the infrared imaging system during capture of the radiation from the scene. The infrared imaging system further includes a temperature sensor configured to determine a temperature of the focal plane array. The infrared imaging system further includes a processing circuit configured to determine a temperature associated with the element based on the temperature of the focal plane array. The processing circuit is further configured to determine a temperature associated with an object in the scene based on the infrared image data, the temperature associated with the element, and the temperature of the focal plane array. Related devices and methods are also provided.

Techniques for facilitating non-uniformity correction calibrations are provided. In one example, an infrared imaging system includes an infrared imager and a logic device. The infrared imager is configured to capture a first set of infrared images of a reference object using a first integration time. The infrared imager is further configured to capture a second set of infrared images of the reference object using a second integration time different from the first integration time. The logic device is configured to determine a dark current correction map based on the second set of infrared images.
