‘Seeing in total darkness in a maritime environment — the advantages of thermal imaging’
Practically all of us associate the sea with holidays and fun, but it can be a dangerous place, especially at night time and in bad weather. Yachts collide with other vessels and run on cliffs or other objects, resulting in heavy damages and sometimes even loss of life. Some of these accidents happen in open water, others while navigating in harbours and ports. A number of tools are available to help us detect potential dangers before they become a real hazard — thermal-imaging technology from Flir Systems is one of them.

The use of thermal-imaging cameras for solar panel evaluation offers several advantages. Anomalies can clearly be seen on a crisp thermal image and — unlike most other methods — thermal cameras can be used to scan installed solar panels during normal operation. Thermal cameras also allow large areas to be scanned within a short time frame.
