Infrared thermal imaging technology
What is it?

Infrared
thermography

Q1

Infrared radiation

Infrared radiation, an electromagnetic wave beyond visible red light, is emitted by any object above absolute zero (-273.15°C). Its physical essence is thermal radiation, forming the basis of infrared temperature measurement.

Q2

Principle of infrared thermal imager

An infrared thermal imager converts invisible infrared radiation into visible thermal images, revealing the temperature distribution on the target surface.
