Although infrared radiation (IR) is not detectable by the human eye, an IR camera can convert it to a visual image that depicts thermal variations across an object or scene. Thermography is a type of imaging that is accomplished with an IR camera calibrated to display temperature values across an object or scene.
This article dives into the science and mathematics to explain how non-contact measurements of an object’s temperature are possible.
This article explains the different types of detectors and what to consider to ensure the camera you select has the appropriate response for the IR range of your application.
Why did I get this? From time to time, we hand-pick articles that we feel may be of interest to you based on the content you’ve read on Photonics Online. I hope you enjoy these pieces and I welcome feedback on how we can improve our editorial offerings.
