        How Does a Thermal Camera Work – Demo, Specs and Datasheets – Part 1
        1. How Does a Thermal Camera Work - Part 1

        Part 1 of 2. In this video I take a look at the basic workings of thermal cameras, microbolometers, specifications and datasheets.

        Topics covered:
        * How does a thermal camera / imager work?
        * What is a microbolometer?
        * How to use a thermal camera / imager?
        * IFOV – Instantaneous field of view / spatial resolution.
        * Distance to spot ratio
        * Thermal camera field of view and resolution.
        * NETD – Noise equivalent temperature difference – thermal camera sensitivity.
        * NUC – Non uniformity correction – thermal camera / microbolometer calibration through a blackbody shutter.
        * Temperature span vs colour (color) palate.
        * Emissivity and reflected IR (infrared)
        * Thermal camera image update speed / performance
        * Thermal camera accuracy
        * Thermal camera focus

        Cameras used in demonstrations:

        * Opgal Therm-App TH
        * Fluke Ti90
        * FLIR E4
        * HT Instruments THT45
