Why is it that infrared thermography can capture images in total darkness at night that we normally cannot see with the naked eye?Because everything with a temperature above absolute zero (-273°) emits infrared radiation. An infrared camera can convert the thermal radiation into a corresponding

When it comes to night vision devices, most people think of image intensification technology. In fact, image intensification systems are generally referred to as night vision devices (NVDs.) Inside the NVD is an image intensifier tube that can be used to capture and amplify infrared and visible

Night vision equipment can be roughly categorized into three main groups:Spotting scopes - Spotting scopes are generally hand-held and can also be mounted on a weapon, they utilize a monocular (one eye) body. Since spotting scopes are handheld devices and are not worn on the body like eyepieces,

To understand the principles of night vision, it is necessary to know something about the principles of light. The amount of energy in a light wave is related to its wavelength: the shorter the wavelength, the higher the energy. In visible light, violet light has the highest energy, while red light

Infrared night vision device is the use of photoelectric conversion technology of military night vision device. It is divided into active and passive two kinds: the former with infrared searchlight irradiation target, receive reflected infrared radiation to form an image; the latter does not emit

Both plants, animals, humans, cars and objects emit heat. The defining characteristic of a thermal sensor is the detection of heat in response to small differences between thermal features in the image. So whether it's raining, sunny or completely dark, thermal imaging cameras provide clear thermal

According to “infrared diagnostic application specification for energized equipment DL/T 664-2016” there are six kinds of infrared defect determination methods:1. surface temperature judgment methodIt is mainly applicable to current-heated and electromagnetic effect-heated equipment. According to

In industry, the provision of reliable power is critical to equipment safety and personnel safety, and it ensures the smooth operation of motors, transformers, conductors, power cables, and other types of electrical installations.There are often a large number of switches, contacts, wiring, casing

When is it necessary to calculate the distance factor ratio and when is it not? Primarily long range applications.The following types of applications will generally require long-distance measurements:● Measuring roofs or other tall targets from ground level● Monitoring power lines● Monitoring

The most common query among thermal photographers is, “How far can I really measure with a thermal imaging camera?”It's a bit more complicated to explain, but fundamentally measuring distance depends on the resolution and field of view (FOV) of the thermal imaging camera, as follows:A thermal
