Analysis of FLIR Thermal Imager's New Technology

Have you ever seen the American blockbuster "Transformers"? In the opening part, when the American soldiers used infrared thermal imaging equipment to detect King Kong, the logo that suddenly came into view was so familiar. Yes, this is the masterpiece of the well-known military infrared thermal imaging equipment supplier-the American FLIR company.

At the same time, FLIR is the manufacturer of BMW's night vision system. The latest news is that FLIR has prepared a new infrared thermal imaging instrument for automakers. FLIR Systems' PathFindIR is a compact thermal imager that can greatly reduce the danger of night driving. It allows drivers to see farther and with higher clarity than when using standard headlights. The driver can detect and monitor pedestrians, animals or objects on and near the road in the normal field of view PathFindIR field of view, giving more time to respond to any potential dangers.

PathFindIR can help detect and identify potential dangers in complete darkness, smoke, rain and snow. PathFindIR components can be integrated into military vehicle designs or suitable for civilian vehicle applications in the aftermarket service market.

Infrared thermal imager is an instrument that generates infrared images and temperature measurements by absorbing the energy radiation of the target object.

Infrared energy is invisible to the naked eye. Its wavelength is too long to be detected by the naked eye. It is part of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans perceive as heat. Unlike visible light, in the infrared field, anything above absolute zero can emit heat. Even objects with very cold surfaces, such as ice, can emit infrared energy. The hotter the object, the more infrared energy it radiates. Infrared thermal imagers can help us see what the naked eye cannot see.

Infrared thermal imagers can produce infrared images or thermal radiation images and can provide accurate non-contact temperature measurement capabilities. Almost all objects will heat up before they fail, so infrared thermal imagers are definitely a cost-effective detection tool in many fields. Since many industries regard efficient production, energy management, increased production and production safety as important goals for corporate development, infrared thermal imagers are being used in various industries and various application fields.
