Certified Thermographer - I.T.C. - #9866 About Infrared
Thermography Thermography is the use of an infrared imaging and
measurement camera to ‘see‘ and ‘measure‘ thermal energy emitted
from an object. Thermal, or infrared energy, is light that is
not visible because its wavelength is too long to be detected by
the human eye; it's the part of the electromagnetic spectrum
that we perceive as heat. Unlike visible light, in the infrared
world, everything with a temperature above absolute zero emits
heat. Even very cold objects, like ice cubes, emit infrared. The
higher the object's temperature, the greater the IR radiation
emitted. Infrared allows us to see what our eyes cannot.
Infrared thermography cameras produce images of invisible
infrared or ‘heat‘ radiation and provide precise non-contact
temperature measurement capabilities. FLIR BCAM SD An infrared
camera is a non-contact device that detects infrared energy
(heat) and converts it into an electronic signal, which is then
processed to produce a thermal ima
