2. Thermal imaging camera - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_imaging_camera

   A thermal imaging camera (colloquially known as a TIC) is a type of the thermographic camera used in firefighting. By rendering infrared radiation as visible light , such cameras allow firefighters to see areas of heat through smoke, darkness, or heat-permeable barriers.

3. Thermal weapon sight - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_weapon_sight

   A thermographic weapon sight, thermal imagery scope or thermal weapon sight is a sighting device combining a compact thermographic camera and an aiming reticle. [1] They can be mounted on a variety of small arms as well as some heavier weapons. [2] As with regular ultraviolet sensors, thermal weapon sights can operate in total darkness.

4. Staring array - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staring_array

   Applications for infrared FPAs include missile or related weapons guidance sensors, infrared astronomy, manufacturing inspection, thermal imaging for firefighting, medical imaging, and infrared phenomenology (such as observing combustion, weapon impact, rocket motor ignition and other events that are interesting in the infrared spectrum).

5. Infrared homing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_homing

   Modern heat-seeking missiles use imaging infrared (IIR), where the IR/UV sensor is a focal plane array which is able to produce an image in infra-red, much like the charge-coupled device (CCD) in a digital camera. This requires much more signal processing but can be much more accurate and harder to fool with decoys.

6. Forward-looking infrared - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward-looking_infrared

   The term "forward-looking" is used to distinguish fixed forward-looking thermal imaging systems from sideways-tracking infrared systems, also known as "push broom" imagers, and other thermal imaging systems such as gimbal-mounted imaging systems, handheld imaging systems, and the like. Pushbroom systems typically have been used on aircraft and ...

7. Teledyne FLIR - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teledyne_FLIR

   On October 4, 2022, the company announced that NASA will use its thermal LWIR camera module, the Boson, in its design of an inflatable re-entry heat shield. [ 69 ] On October 25, 2022, the company was awarded $48.7 million (USD) to provide Maritime Forward Looking Infared (MARFLIR) II sensors and variants of the SeaFLIR 280-HD surveillance ...

8. 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.

9. Fire photography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_photography

   Fire photography is the act of taking photographs of firefighting operations. People who practise this form of photography are called fire photographers . Since fire photography involves being close to dangerous situations, fire photographers must have special skills and knowledge about emergency incident scenes, operations, health, and safety ...
