To fully exploit the potential of current generation infrared focal plane arrays, it is crucial to correct for the fixed pattern noise. This paper presents two-point non-uniformity corrections (NUC) applied to infrared images acquired with long wave and medium wave infrared cameras. Pixels that are not corrected by the NUC process, defined as bad pixels, were identified and replaced using a nearest neighbor algorithm.
