Thermal Cameras

Thermal Cameras

A thermal camera, also known as an infrared camera or thermal imaging camera, is a device that detects and visualizes heat emitted by objects, converting this thermal energy into a visible image. thermal cameras detect infrared radiation, which is emitted by all objects based on their temperature.

How Thermal Cameras Work

Infrared Detection

Thermal cameras use sensors to detect infrared radiation, which is emitted by objects based on their temperature.

Thermal Sensor

The sensor in the camera (often a focal plane array) converts the infrared radiation into electronic signals.

Image Processing

The electronic signals are processed to create a thermal image, where different temperatures are represented by varying colors. Warmer areas appear in colors like red or white, while cooler areas appear in colors like blue or black.

Display

The processed thermal image is displayed on a screen, allowing users to see temperature variations in real-time.

Types of Thermal Cameras

Handheld Thermal Cameras

Portable and used for various applications, including building inspections, and search and rescue operations etc.

Fixed Thermal Cameras

Mounted in a specific location for continuous monitoring, often used in security systems, industrial processes, or infrastructure inspections.

 

Wearable Thermal Cameras

Integrated into helmets or goggles for use in specific fields like firefighting or tactical operations.

Thermal Camera Modules

Compact units that can be integrated into other systems, such as drones, robots, or vehicles.
