Image for thermal imaging

thermal imaging

Thermal imaging is a technology that detects and visualizes heat emitted by objects. Every object, including living beings, produces infrared radiation based on its temperature. A thermal camera captures this radiation and converts it into an image, where warmer areas appear brighter than cooler ones. This enables us to see heat patterns in darkness or through smoke, making it useful in various fields like search and rescue, building inspections, and military applications. Essentially, thermal imaging allows us to see the world in terms of heat rather than light.
