Report: Consumer Goods to Drive IR Imaging Market

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Sales of thermal imaging components surged in 2013, heralding future growth and a wider customer base for the uncooled IR imaging market, according to research firm Yole Developpement. Consumer products are expected to see a 61 percent compound annual growth rate for 2013-2014 as inexpensive IR equipment is made available, Yole said. The firm noted the debut of the $349 Flir One smartphone module, which it predicts will sell more than 30,000 units. Projections for the global uncooled IR camera market (in units): Total shipments forecast for a nominal scenario are designated...Read full article

    thermal imaging
    The process of producing a visible two-dimensional image of a scene that is dependent on differences in thermal or infrared radiation from the scene reaching the aperture of the imaging device.
    thermography
    Thermography is a technique that involves the use of an infrared imaging device, called a thermal camera or infrared camera, to detect and visualize the infrared radiation emitted by objects. This technology allows for the creation of thermographic images, also known as thermograms, where variations in temperature are represented by different colors or shades. The basic principles of thermography are as follows: Infrared radiation emission: All objects with a temperature above absolute zero...
