  1. IR Cameras in EUSO Preliminary work from : AnnaAnzalone, Francesco Isgrò, PedroAbreu, Mario Pimenta, Masahiro Teshima M. Pimenta Munich 2003

  2. EUSO note available

  3. Goal ISS EUSO • Evaluation of the EUSO Effective Field of View: • Average cloud coverage within • operational time • Cloud parameter evaluation at the occurrence of an event: • Cloud-top height evaluation • …..

  4. Stereo visioncloud height • InfraRed camera(s) in EUSO • Stereo vision provided by the movement (pos. 1, 2) • Pattern Recognition(different views of the same cloud) + geometry  cloud height H • resolution: 1 2  /| =30° = 0.1%  H  500 m Cloud! H Earth!

  5. Tests on ATSR data • Along-Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR-2) on the ERS-2 satellite: • Altitude 780 km, velocity 6.7 km/s • 2 observations with 120 s separation First Test : Use of a differential method to evaluate the motion field on a pixel basis:

  6. A Possible camera? m ~ 5 Kg

  7. Status... • Software • Survey of possible algorithms for • Cloud Pattern recognition • Cloud movement tracking • Multi-image samples for sub-pixel resolution • Hardware …
