Abstract: A system for optical alignment and calibration of an infrared camera lens, including: a lens support mechanism configured to adjust a position of an infrared camera lens relative to a camera body; at least one collimator configured to output infrared rays, wherein the at least one collimator is positioned such that the output infrared rays converge on an infrared sensor within the camera body through the infrared camera lens; and at least one curing catalyst configured to cure an adhesive placed on the infrared camera lens when an ideal lens position is determined.

Abstract: A camera apparatus. The camera apparatus includes a housing having a front end and a back end; a lens, wherein the lens is disposed in the front end of the housing; and a thermal core, wherein the thermal core is disposed between the lens and the back end of the housing, the thermal core further comprising: at least one substrate; at least one thermally conductive member configured to remove heat from the thermal core; and an infrared imager affixed to one of the at least one substrate, the infrared imager configured to capture an infrared video stream.
