The year 2010 is significant in the infrared timeline. It marks the centenary of the first published infrared photograph by Professor Robert Williams Wood. Indeed modern day thermal imaging and thermography owe much to this American physicist’s groundbreaking work in optics and spectroscopy.

The FLIR P-Series are thermal imaging cameras for expert thermographers and as such they already contain many smart features for swift and effective predictive maintenance tasks and detailed analysis. The latest generation of these high-end models add to this list another unique FLIR feature that was first introduced in the FLIR i60 and FLIR T-Series cameras. This is MeterLink, wireless connection technology that allows the FLIR infrared camera...

Modern bike frames are made of carbon fibre-reinforced plastics, which is exceptionally light and strong. But the way these frames behave in case of failure is fundamentally different from the old metal frames. Instead of bending, carbon fibre-reinforced plastics break. This exposes riders to dangerous situations; failures can lead to injury or even death

FLIR Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) has announced a new applications report that describes how Linköping, Sweden, based company Termisk Systemteknik has developed an aircraft based system using a FLIR SC7600 thermal imaging camera to effectively monitor and maintain local district heating networks.

The FLIR SC655 is a high-resolution uncooled thermal imaging camera designed to precisely monitor the thermal efficiency of your development project. Using the FLIR SC655 helps prevent design faults, enhances product quality and cuts time-to-market.

The evolution of infrared continues. FLIR Systems thermal imaging cameras are now highly compact - and getting smaller - and much lighter but no less robust. They are also packed with many more features than their forerunners of just a few years ago. This growth path has given FLIR Systems’ thermal imaging cameras much greater application scope and that trend continues apace.

One of the reasons why FLIR Systems has grown to be the infrared *market leader is that it continues to stretch the boundaries of this exciting technology. The company has a growing list of industry-firsts to its credit including the world’s first, off-the-shelf and portable 640 x 480 thermal imaging camera.

Cedip Infrared Systems, now full part of FLIR systems, will be as every year present at the Photonex exhibition, being held at Stoneleigh Park on 15th and 16th October 2008. Cedip/FLIR will present the most recent additions in its affordable, high performance IR camera range to the UK market.

The potential for infrared in the building sector has never been greater. Sky-rocketing energy prices, green building policies and EU directives on energy conservation have all driven the take-up of the technology.

For those investing in infrared for R&D applications, industry leader FLIR has produced an information-packed resource guide.
