Over a period of time, there is an increase in the utilization of unique and advanced thermal scanning products in this industry. Due to increasing conflicts between nations wars have increased. Well-equipped military forces and technologically advanced methods are required in such situations. In order to cope with these distinctly asymmetric, multidimensional, and highly lethal needs of the battlefield, global armies are modernizing their military arsenal and equipping soldiers with the latest combat and surveillance technology.
- Oil & Gas− In the oil & gas sector, process handling equipment work in an environment of high pressure, temperature, and oxidization. Any malfunction such as gas leakage can cause huge loss. Many oil & gas production industries release chemical compounds and gases that are invisible to the naked eye and can be detected accurately using thermal scanning systems.
- Commercial − In the commercial segment, thermal imaging solutions are used for security and surveillance monitoring, inspection, and the detection of commercial buildings and public places that include airports, stadiums, and others. The security and surveillance of building infrastructures are of prime importance in commercial buildings. This can be achieved by using thermal scanners and imaging systems as they comprise onboard video analytics capable of sorting human or vehicular intrusions, which significantly reduces false alarms.
Thermal Scanners Market and Top Technologies
- Cooled− Cooled thermal scanning systems have imaging sensors, interfacing and image processing electronics, cryocoolers, and an optional zoom lens. The cryocooler is used to lower the imaging sensor temperature to cryogenic temperature, which is essential to reduce thermally induced noise and support the image formation. The image produced by the cooled thermal scanning system is clear, has high spectral filtering, and improved magnification performance.
- Uncooled− Uncooled thermal cameras are based on the microbolometer design. They do not use cryocoolers or thermoelectric coolers for cooling the imaging sensor temperature, whereas they operate at room temperature. Thermal scanners based on uncooled technology function on the long-wave infrared (LWIR) band in which most of the targeted terrestrial temperature is emitted by the infrared energy.
