1. About Thermal Detector

The working principle of thermal detectors is to take advantages of the thermal effect to heat the detection element and cause heat transformation of some physical properties so that the IR radiation energy can be detected.

Thermal detector works at room temperature. During its operation, there are temperature changes, which may have slow response and a relatively low sensitivity compared with photon detectors.

There are mainly 4 types of the infrared thermal detector: Thermocouple/Thermopile, Pyroelectric Detector, Thermistor/Bolometer, Microbolometer

2. How does Infrared Thermal Imaging Work?
Infrared thermal imaging system is a passive non-contact detection and identification of infrared technology. It focuses the infrared radiation of the scene on the focal plane array infrared detector through the infrared optical system that can pass through infrared radiation. The thermal detector converts the radiation signal of different intensity into the corresponding electrical signal, and then through amplification and video processing, forms the infrared image that can be observed by the naked eyes.
