  • Publication number: 20260164115
    Abstract: A method for displaying at least a specific area in a thermal image of a thermal imaging camera includes (i) providing the thermal image, wherein the thermal image results from a detection of a thermal image sensor of the thermal imaging camera, (ii) receiving at least one selection condition for the specific range in the thermal image based on a user input, (iii) creating the specific area based on the received selection condition, (iv) determining a color scale for the specific area created based on a minimum and a maximum temperature value represented in the specific area created in the thermal image, and (v) initiating a display of a blended image, wherein the blended image comprises the specific area created using the determined color scale as a thermal image and a remaining area. Also disclosed are a thermal imaging camera, a computer program, a device, and a storage medium for this purpose.

  • Publication number: 20250244176
    Abstract: A thermal imaging camera includes a housing, a front bracket, an infrared assembly for detecting infrared radiation, and a visual assembly for receiving visual radiation. The infrared assembly and the visual assembly are disposed substantially within the housing. The camera further includes at least one cooling element for cooling at least the infrared assembly. The camera also includes a positioning device configured to position the visual assembly to the infrared assembly.

  • Publication number: 20250182252
    Abstract: A method for reducing noise in image data includes (i) providing image data, wherein the image data comprises at least one thermal image, wherein the image data results from a detection of at least one sensor, (ii) determining a temperature difference represented in the at least one thermal image based on an analysis of temperature data of the at least one thermal image, (iii) determining a number of averages for an evaluation of further image data based on the determined temperature difference, wherein the number of averages specifies how many thermal images are averaged for the evaluation of the further image data, wherein the further image data results from a further detection of the at least one sensor, and (iv) reducing the noise in the further image data by the evaluation with the determined number of averages. An associated computer program, a device, and a storage medium are also disclosed.
