  • How does a thermal camera see heat? Why can't I see heat with a regular camera? A thermal camera is a non-contact device that detects infrared energy (heat) and converts it into a visual image. Let’s dive into the science of thermal camera sensors, and the invisible world of heat they allow us to see.

      Hi! Sorry about my english. The answer start in 0:14 on video: the heat is detected by infrared sensor. Infrared is emitted by everything around us proportionally their temperature. The sensor detect that and show the result by a image that represent levels of heat.

      @@VortexEquipamentosLt ​ He means it doesn't explain how the infrared sensor part works. He knows it detects infra red and displays this information as colors... that's the obvious part. But how it detects this is no explained. It's like saying you make a cake by putting the ingredients for a cake together in the right order. It's telling us nothing.

      Does anyone know how the sensor determines the temperature? If it would by detecting the amount of infrared radiation, it would decrease with distance. How is it possible to measure the same temperature with different distances?

    Can you use optical lenses for ir? Or do you need a special lens? If so what is it made from?

      ex. Ge, ZnSe. Generally it depends from the spectral range.
