Light pattern, radiation apparent temperature Ta, thermal resistance, and self-heating details were characterized at T=300 K in microscale by calibrated infrared cameras operating in the 3–5 and 8–12 mkm bands. The authors show that LEDs dynamically simulate very hot Ta=750 K targets as well as cold objects and low observable. They resume that low cost LEDs enable a platform for photonic scene projection devices able to compete with thermal microemitter technology. Proposals on how to further increase LEDs performance are given.
