Abstract
This paper proposes an IR camera system that performs the task of removing mines for humanitarian purposes. Because of the high risks involved, it is necessary to conduct mine detection from the most remote endeavoring. By making use of infrared ray(IR)cameras, scattered mines can be detected from remote locations. In the case of mines buried in the ground, detection is possible if the peripheral temperature difference is large enough between the ground and mine weapon. As one of the worlds advanced nations in sensor technology, Japan should promote surveys and studies for detecting mines safely studies for detecting mines safely by using its advanced remote sensing technologies.
