Abstract;A monitoring system using both visible(VIS) and infrared(IR) images is developed for the observation of satellites on orbit. Two images from a visible camera and an infrared camera, which were aligned on the same optical axis, were registered using an image processing board. Using the system, conditions of satellites were estimated from a standpoint of temperature distribution. (author abst.)
