  2. Thermography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermography

    Thermogram of a traditional building in the background and a "passive house" in the foregroundInfrared thermography (IRT), thermal video or thermal imaging, is a process where a thermal camera captures and creates an image of an object by using infrared radiation emitted from the object in a process, which are examples of infrared imaging science.

  3. Infrared sensing in snakes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sensing_in_snakes

    Infrared sensing snakes use pit organs extensively to detect and target warm-blooded prey such as rodents and birds. Blind or blindfolded rattlesnakes can strike prey accurately in the complete absence of visible light, [ 13 ] [ 14 ] though it does not appear that they assess prey animals based on their body temperature. [ 15 ]

  4. Thermographic inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermographic_inspection

    Infrared thermography specifically refers to a nonintrusive, noncontact mapping of thermograms on the surface of objects using a detector that is sensitive to infrared radiation. [1] There are many other terms widely used, all referring to infrared thermography; the adoption of specific term(s) depends on the author's background and preferences.

  5. Infrared vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_vision

    Infrared vision is the capability of biological or artificial systems to detect infrared radiation. The terms thermal vision and thermal imaging [ 1 ] [ 2 ] are also commonly used in this context since infrared emissions from a body are directly related to their temperature: hotter objects emit more energy in the infrared spectrum than colder ones.

  6. Biological imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_imaging

    Non-contact thermography, is the field of thermography that derives diagnostic indications from infrared images of the human body. Nuclear medicine, uses administered radioactive substances to create images of internal organs and their function. Optical imaging, using light as an investigational tool for biological research and medical diagnosis

  7. Non-contact thermography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-contact_thermography

    Non-contact thermography, thermographic imaging, or medical thermology is the field of thermography that uses infrared images of the human skin to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions. Medical thermology is sometimes referred to as medical infrared imaging or tele-thermology and utilizes thermographic cameras. According ...

  8. Infrared and thermal testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_and_thermal_testing

    In infrared thermography, thermal radiation is detected and measured with infrared imagers, also known as thermographic cameras or radiometers. The imagers contain an infrared detector that converts the emitted radiation into electrical signals that are displayed on a color or black and white computer display monitor.

  9. Active thermography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_thermography

    Active thermography is an advanced nondestructive testing procedure, which uses a thermographic measurement of a tested material thermal response after its external excitation. This principle can be used also for non-contact [1] infrared non-destructive testing (IRNDT) of materials. [2]
