Thermography
Thermography is a non-destructive testing and diagnostic technique that uses infrared imaging to detect and visualize temperature variations on surfaces. It is widely used in industrial, medical, and building inspection applications to identify issues such as heat loss, electrical faults, or structural defects. By capturing thermal radiation, it provides insights that are not visible to the naked eye.
Developers should learn thermography when working on projects involving energy efficiency, predictive maintenance, or safety monitoring, such as in smart buildings, industrial IoT, or medical devices. It is valuable for identifying overheating components in electronics, detecting insulation flaws, or monitoring thermal performance in real-time systems, helping to prevent failures and optimize operations.
