(USA)The Infrared Materials Standards Working Group is an interactive network ofscientists and engineers who manufacture, test, and use IR materials. The purposeof this group is to develop standards for properties of optical materials used in theinfrared (IR) spectral region (nominally, wavelengths 0.7 – 20 microns).Monday · 29 AprilFellows Luncheon12:00 to 1:30 pm · Hilton: Holiday Ballroom 4Infrared Imaging: From Defense to Medicine?Dr. Sanjay Krishna, The University of New Mexico& SKINfrared LLCThis talk will highlight some of the advances in infrared imaging andmake a case for the use of infrared imaging in medicine.Dr. Krishna is a Professor and Regents Lecturer of Electrical andComputer Engineering at the University of New Mexico’s (UNM) Centerfor High Technology Materials.Infrared Applications: Thermosense XXXV:Vendor Presentations and Reception1:00 to 4:40 pm · Conv. Ctr. Room 315Moderators: Andrés E. Rozlosnik, Si Termografia Infrarroja (Argentina),and Herb Kaplan, Honeywell Technical Co. (USA)The Infrared Applications: ThermoSense XXXV Vendors Session will featurebrief presentations from hardware and software vendors whose product linesimpact thermal imaging applications. Unlike the technical sessions, there are no“commercial content” restrictions in these presentations. This event allows vendorsto showcase new products on display at this year’s exhibit, and provides attendeeswith an advance glimpse of “what’s new” in thermal imaging applications.See p. 28–29 for list of Vendors.INVITED PANEL DISCUSSIONReal World Issues and Challenges in Big DataProcessing with Applications to Information Fusion1:30 to 4:45 pm · Conv.
