Webinar Description

Infrared camera technology is changing rapidly and so are the potential applications. A wide variety of infrared cameras including personal, entry level, mid and high level, mid and high-performance handled models will be briefly described. Also, specialty infrared cameras operating in different wavelengths allowing for filtering and/or special processing, facilitating unique applications will be discussed. Infrared is truly a diverse technology but it’s not without some limitations or challenges.  Examples of the more typical applications, electrical, mechanical and buildings will be reviewed.  Less common applications will be then be examined such as gas detection, nondestructive testing, continuous monitoring, drones and others.

Learning Takeaways

1. Infrared camera options, including features, functions, wavelength, specifications and cost
2. Benefits and limitations of the technology
3. The diversity of the technology
