The current disclosure provides fixtures for calibrating thermal imaging sensors. It can include two or more temperature control devices: one for controlling the ambient temperature of the sensor and one that controls the temperature of a blackbody scene. The fixture can also include a reflective element that can be configured such that in one configuration the sensor views the blackbody and in another views itself. By keeping the blackbody and the sensor ambient temperature different, this arrangement allows for rapid viewing of two scene temperatures for each time the temperatures of the sensor and blackbody are slewed. This design simplifies the calibration process, reduces test time, and reduces costs.
A fixture for calibrating thermal imaging sensors, the fixture comprising:
