infrared and radiometers
* Sensors: microwave and infrared radiometers, cosmic dust, solar plasma and high-energy radiation, magnetic fields
The scientific instruments on board the Mariner spacecraft were two radiometers ( one each for the microwave and infrared portions of the spectrum ), a micrometeorite sensor, a solar plasma sensor, a charged particle sensor, and a magnetometer.
The instruments of the orbiter consisted of two vidicon cameras for imaging ( VIS ), an infrared spectrometer for water vapor mapping ( MAWD ) and infrared radiometers for thermal mapping ( IRTM ).
Examples of passive remote sensors include film photography, infrared, charge-coupled devices, and radiometers.
The thermal or infrared images recorded by sensors called scanning radiometers enable a trained analyst to determine cloud heights and types, to calculate land and surface water temperatures, and to locate ocean surface features.
Conversely, radiometers are typically used for remote sensing from the visible, infrared though radio frequency range.
