2024年12月19日With the rapid development of science and technology, mobile phone thermal imaging technology is no longer a distant technological magic. So, how does a mobile phone achieve thermal imaging? Mobile phone thermal imaging technology captures the infrared radiation emitted by an object and converts it into a visible thermal imaging image, bringing us a new visual experience.
Next, let’s unveil this mystery together.
How mobile phone thermal imaging works.
Mobile phone thermal imaging technology is based on the principle of infrared radiation and uses infrared sensors to capture infrared radiation emitted by objects.
Infrared is an electromagnetic wave with a longer wavelength than visible light. It has the ability to penetrate clouds, fog and smoke, and can detect the temperature information on the surface of objects. Mobile thermal imaging cameras convert these infrared information into visible light information to form thermal imaging images.
The thermal imaging system mainly consists of three parts: infrared detector, optical system and computer processing system. The infrared detector is the core component, which is responsible for converting infrared radiation into electrical signals.
The optical system is responsible for collecting infrared rays emitted by the object and focusing them on the infrared detector. The computer processing system processes the electrical signal and converts it into a visible thermal image.
Relevant parameters of mobile phone thermal imaging.
Temperature range: The temperature range that mobile phone thermal imaging cameras can detect. Different models of mobile phone thermal imaging cameras have different temperature ranges. Users can choose according to actual needs.
Resolution: The resolution of the thermal imaging image determines the clarity and detail of the image. High-resolution thermal imaging cameras can capture more temperature details, making the image clearer.
Refresh rate: Refresh rate refers to the number of image frames that a thermal imaging camera can capture per second. Thermal imaging cameras with high refresh rates can display the temperature changes of objects in real time, making observations more accurate.
Application of mobile phone thermal imaging technology
Mobile phone thermal imaging technology has broad application prospects in military, industrial, medical and other fields.
For example, in the military, thermal imaging technology can be used for night reconnaissance and target identification; in the industrial field, thermal imaging technology can be used to detect temperature anomalies of equipment and prevent accidents; in the medical field, thermal imaging technology can be used to assist in the diagnosis of diseases such as inflammation and tumors.
In addition, with the popularity of mobile phone thermal imaging technology, more and more consumers are beginning to apply it in their daily lives. For example, outdoor explorers can use mobile phone thermal imaging technology to discover small animals at night, and photography enthusiasts can take unique thermal imaging photos.
In short, by understanding the working principle, related parameters and application scenarios of mobile phone thermal imaging, we can make better use of this technology to bring more convenience and fun to life.
