Article Type: research-article
Abstract: Television cameras convert reflected visible light into electrical signals, processes them, and displays the image on a video monitor. Infrared (IR) cameras collect long wavelength radiated light and convert it into electrical signals that can be displayed on a remote TV screen. Infrared cameras, therefore, do not require any source of light to produce an image because the subject itself is the light. This article is intended to be an introduction to infrared video and the electromagnetic spectrum it occupies. Also discussed is basic IR concepts, a history of IR technology, the future of IR imaging, applications of IR imaging to television, and other commercial uses.
