Thermal imaging camera

A thermal imaging camera (TIC) records the different infrared radiations of the body, which vary according to temperature. A TIC reproduces the temperature stored by the body or shows the heat flux of a wall, when there is a source of heat behind it.

We develop and manufactures its own thermal imaging cameras and supplies them worldwide.

A thermal imaging camera may be used in different situations.
