6 Advantages of Infrared Thermal Imaging Technology

6 Advantages of Infrared Thermal Imaging Technology

Jul 22,2021

Infrared thermal imaging technology can detect the thermal radiation emitted by the target object itself, so it can provide temperature information of the target object after calibration. Then it can take advantage of its temperature-sensitive characteristics and be used in multiple fields under a variety of environments and conditions. The following are the advantages of infrared thermal imaging technology.

Good concealment

Infrared thermal imaging technology is a passive non-contact detection and identification with good concealment. Since the infrared thermal imaging technology is a passive non-contact detection and recognition of the target, it has good concealment and is not easy to be found, so that the operator of the infrared thermal imager is safer and more effective.

Can track hot targets clearly at a long distance

Infrared thermal imaging technology is not subject to electromagnetic interference and can clearly track thermal targets at a long distance. Since infrared thermal imaging technology uses thermal infrared rays, it is not subject to electromagnetic interference. The infrared search and tracking system using advanced thermal imaging technology can clearly track thermal targets at a long distance and can track multiple targets at the same time so that the weapon can exert its best effectiveness. 

Infrared thermal imaging technology can make guided weapons have high intelligence and ability to be ignored after launch and can find important targets to be destroyed, thereby greatly improving the accuracy of the weapon's hitting and making its combat power dozens of times more powerful. improve.

24h monitoring

Infrared radiation is the most widespread radiation in nature, while the atmosphere, smoke clouds, etc. can absorb visible light and near-infrared rays, but are transparent to the infrared rays of 3~5μm and 8~14μm. These two bands are called the “atmosphere of infrared rays”. window". Therefore, using these two windows, you can clearly observe the target that needs to be monitored in a completely dark night or in a harsh environment with dense clouds such as rain and snow. It is precise because of this feature that infrared thermal imaging technology can truly monitor 24 hours a day.

Strong detection ability and long-range

The ability to use infrared thermal imaging technology for detection is strong, and it can be observed outside the range of the enemy's defense weapons, and its action range is long. 

The current handheld thermal imaging camera and mounted on light weapons can allow the user to see the human body over 800m clearly, and the effective range of aiming and shooting is 2~3km, and the water surface can be observed up to 10km on the ship. The activities of individual soldiers on the ground can be found on a helicopter at a height of 1.5km, people and vehicles on the ground can be found on a reconnaissance plane at a height of 20km, and underwater submarines can be detected by analyzing changes in seawater temperature.

Use a variety of display methods

Only when the temperature of the object is as high as 1000 ℃ or more, can it emit visible light and be seen by human eyes. And all objects whose temperature is above absolute zero (-273°C) will continuously emit thermal infrared rays. For example, the thermal infrared energy emitted by a normal person is about 100W. These are invisible to the human eye, but the amount of thermal radiation energy of an object is directly related to the temperature of the surface of the object. 

This feature of thermal radiation allows people to use infrared thermal imaging technology to measure the temperature and analyze the thermal state of objects without contact, and display them in a variety of display methods. 

If the video signal is processed in false color, different colors can be used to display thermal images of different temperatures; if the reverse video signal is processed by analog-to-digital conversion, the temperature value of each point of the object can be displayed digitally, so that it is invisible to the human eye. s things. So it can be said that infrared thermal imaging technology has increased the human senses from five to six.

Intuitively display the temperature field on the surface of the object without being affected by strong light

The infrared thermometer can only display the temperature value of a small area or a certain point on the surface of the object, while the infrared thermal imager can measure the temperature of each point on the surface of the object at the same time, intuitively display the temperature field of the surface of the object, and in the form of an image display. 

Since the infrared thermal imager detects the size of the infrared heat radiation energy of the target object, it is not haloed or turned off when in a strong light environment like the low-light image intensifier, so it is not affected by strong light.

The just-needed applications of infrared thermal imaging are all around the technical characteristics of temperature sensitivity, passive imaging, and all-weather work.
