ABSTRACT:
A system for measuring temperature within a region to be tested includes a sensor means responsive to the temperature within the region for transmitting light energy along an optically-transmissive path and detector and amplifier means responsive to the light energy for producing an output signal which represents the intensity of the light energy. A signal processor electronically calculates a display signal from the output signal which represents the temperature within the test region. The signal processor performs this calcuation by solving Planck's equation, and a successive bisection technique is utilized to achieve extremely fine resolution of the temperature.
