IR Thermography – How It Works

Posted by: Ray in General, Infrared Thermography

An online article in Photonics Online by Dave Bursell, Director, Science Segment at FLIR Systems, Inc. in North Billerica, MA USA. it explains about the physics of Infrared thermal emission, how it is related to the surface temperature of an object.

He goes further to also explain how the thermal radiation is collected, processed and displayed in an imager. An excellent introductory article to the subject.
