Frequently Asked Questions
What is infrared radiation?
When talking about infrared thermal imaging, the first thing to consider is infrared radiation (IR). The wavelength of infrared radiation energy starts at about 700nm and extends to about 1mm. All objects emit a certain amount of heat in the form of infrared radiation, which is invisible to us because in the entire electromagnetic spectrum, the naked eye can only see "visible light".
How does infrared thermal imager work?
The core component of infrared equipment is the infrared thermal detector, which can sensitively detect the tiny temperature differences of surrounding objects. It collects this radiation information from objects and outputs temperature information for imaging based on the temperature difference data. The hotter the object, the more infrared radiation it produces. If the intensity is high enough, you can feel it as heat.
