2.2 Optical Specifications
The following optical specification is based on the theoretical calculated spot size derived on the pitch of the camera
detector array and the lens focal length. Typically, for accurate temperature measurements, the target area needs
to be larger than that determined by the calculated theoretical spot sizes, which corresponds to 3 x 3 pixels.
For more technical information on the add-on lenses, see section 7.1
