The Thermosense vendors session started eighteen years ago and has become a very popular and well-attended success. This special session provides an early opportunity for exhibitors to highlight their latest technology and newest products to the Thermosense, infrared industry, and SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing (DCS) technical audience prior to the opening of the DCS22 Expo. In a relaxed atmosphere, enjoy a casual meeting setting with ample time for questions and answers. This session enables the conference attendees and visitors to better prioritize their activities when visiting the Expo. The session includes:

• Exhibitors sharing state-of-the-art in future generation of infrared detectors, IR imagers radiometric and non-radiometric, IR image processing systems and IR systems integration. Drones and Robots
• Explores other related infrared optics, semitransparent materials, coatings, filter, characterization and calibration sources, infrared fiber optics, coolers, multispectral and hyperspectral cameras
• It also covers topics related hardware and software involved in infrared applications: NIR - SWIR - MWIR - LWIR
• Infrared industry manufacturing & applications: artificial intelligence, big data, data analytics, datasets and advanced algorithms. Smarter IR sensor/systems technology connected to Internet of Things (IoT / IIoT)
• Infrared Industry: training, standards and hardware accessories
