A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. In S. P. Hoogendoom, S. Luding, P. H. L. Bovy, M. Schreckenberg, & D. E. Wolf (Eds.), Traffic and granular flow 03, 383-392. https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-28091-X_37
We provide a comparison of the relative merits of video and infrared based methods for collecting pedestrian movements from the real world and also from experimental environme...

Infrared sensing using pyroelectric polymers

Conference Proceeding
Armitage, A., Benjamin, K., Setiadi, D., Weller, H., & Binnie, D. (1997)
Infrared sensing using pyroelectric polymers. In A. T. Augousti, & N. M. White (Eds.), Sensors & their Applications VIII (297-302
This paper describes a programme of work intended to develop inexpensive infrared imagers. The technology is based on the pyroelectric effect in the polymer PVDF, and a copoly...
