  • This paper presents temperature measurement of solar photovoltaic modules using the custom-made system composed of an infrared temperature sensor and a microcontroller. The obtained measurement results are processed, displayed and stored on a PC using the custom-made virtual instrument. The proposed system overcomes some of the problems related to the contact sensor application, and at the same time offers accurate readings and better flexibility. The proposed system is especially suitable for applications where the cost is a limiting factor in the choice of measuring system. The conducted analysis and the obtained results have shown an excellent accuracy of the proposed system in comparison to a high quality thermal imaging camera used as the reference instrument.

  • The changes in the blood flow in the peripheral vascular system under strong pulsed magnetic fields (pMF) were studied by digital infrared thermal imaging (DITI). After pMF stimulus temperatures in stimulated area were commonly increased in both groups of age and gender. In order to reduce heat generated from coil in pMF stimulus system plastic moldings were fabricated, so that certain distance was kept between stimulus system and the skin and to prevent direct contact to the skin. It is believed that skin temperature is increased by internal electromagnetic energy stimulated the peripheral vascular system by non-contact method.

  • This paper describes the design technology for a third generation thermal imaging system, which is more compact than before, using a $320\times240$ mid-IR focal plane detector. The third generation non-scanning thermal imaging system was constructed as a compact thermal imaging module as a reconnaissance, surveillance and navigation sensor for helicopter and infantry vehicles in the $1980's\sim1990's$ and now, we designed a new compact infrared camera and studied a new type of non-uniformity correction lens fer this camera.

  • Symptoms of foot-and-mouth disease include fever and drooling a lot around the hoof, blisters in the mouth, poor appetite, blisters around the hoof, and blisters around the hoof. Research is underway on smart barns that remotely manage these symptoms through cameras. Visible light cameras can measure the condition of livestock such as blisters, but cannot measure body temperature. On the other hand, infrared thermal imaging cameras can measure body temperature, but it is difficult to measure the condition of livestock. In this paper, we propose an object detection system using deep learning-based livestock detection using visible and infrared thermal imaging composite camera modules for preemptive response

  • In this paper, we developed a temperature measurement system based on an infrared temperature imaging module for thermal safety verification of a plasma skin treatment device (PSTD). We tested a pilot product of the low-temperature PSTD using the system, and the temperature increase of each plasma torch was well-monitored in real-time. Additionally, through the approximation of the temperature increase of the plasma torches, a certain limitation of the plasma treatment time on skin was established with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) guideline. We determined an appropriate plasma treatment time ($T_{Safe}$ < 24 minutes) using the configured temperature measurement system. We believe that the temperature measurement system has a potential to be employed for testing thermal safety and suitability of various medical devices and industrial instruments.

  • Infrared thermographic imaging visualizes noninvasively various abnormal condition by detecting the skin temperature. As the imaging represents the objective condition by the changes in blood flow under the control of autonomic nervous system, it is used to diagnosis and monitor the lumboscral radiculopathy. And asymmetry is important in the diagnosis of disc herniation. The most common type of disc herniation occurs psoterolaterally. This frequently causes nerve root compression leading to a radiculopathy in the distribution of the involved nerve root, most of which also provoke the asymmetric changes in thermography. Central disc herniation, which accounts for 5% to 35% of disc herniation, is typically associated with low back pain. But radiculopathy is usually abscent unless central disc heriniaton is large enough to cause compression of the cauda equina. To evalute the diagnostic value of the thermographic imaging in the diagnosis of central disc herniation, the imaging of 15 normal subjects and 48 patients with central disc herniation documented by CT scan were analyzed. The patients had either bilateral radiculophathy or no radiculopathy. The imaging of patient group with non rediculopathy did not show any significant thermal difference to control. While bilateral radiculopathy group reveled hypothermic pattern compared twith control. Thermal difference between left and right side did not present any significance in non radiculopathy group but hypothermia in bilateral radiculopathy group. Large herniation group demonstrated hyperthemic pattern while the others showed no significant change. Cranial caudal thermal difference did not show any difference between experiment groups. These results shows that infrared thermographic imaging can be used central disc herniation with bilateral radiculopathy, while it seems to little useful on the diagnosis of non radiculopathic disc herniation.

  • The global battery market is rapidly growing due to the development of vehicles(EV) and wireless electronic products. In particular logistics robots, which hielp to produce EVs, have attracted much interest in research in Korea Because logistics sites and factories operate continuously for 24 hours, the technology that can dramatically increase the operation time of the logistics equipment is rapidly developing, and various high-level technologies are required for the batteries used in. for example, logistics robots. These required technologies include those that enable rapid battery charging as well wireless charging to charge batteries while moving. The development of these technologies, however, result in increasing explosions and topical accidents involving rapid charging batteries These accidents due to the thermal shock caused by the heat generated during the charging of the battery cell. In this study, a performance evaluation of a heat dissipation design using infrared thermal imaging was performed on an energy storage systrm(Ess) applied with an internal heat conduction cooling method using a heating plate.

  • The spatial patterns for temperature distribution on crape myrtle leaves infested with sooty mold were investigated using a digital infrared thermal imaging camera. The mean temperatures of the control and sooty regions were $26.98^{\circ}C$ and $28.44^{\circ}C$, respectively. In the thermal images, the sooty regions appeared as distinct spots, indicating that the temperatures in these areas were higher than those in the control regions on the same leaves. This suggests that the sooty regions became warmer than their control regions on the adaxial leaf surface. Neither epidermal penetration nor cell wall dissolution by the fungus was observed on the adaxial leaf surface. It is likely that the high temperature of black leaves have an increased cooling load. To our knowledge, this is the first report on elevated temperatures in sooty regions, and the results show spatial heterogeneity in temperature distribution across the leaf surface.

  • This study conducted a study to improve the problems of the existing fire sensor system. In the case of the existing system, it took more than 3 minutes to detect a fire even at a short distance, making it difficult to extinguish the initial fire. In order to improve these problems, in this study, a fire detection system using an infrared thermal imaging camera was studied. The infrared image-based fire detection system is relatively wide and can detect fire over a long distance, so it has the advantage of being applicable to many fire detection systems. As a result of conducting a field test using the fire detection system, a fire that occurred about 2 km ahead was detected within about 10 seconds. Since the fire detection function of this system can detect within 10 seconds from a distance of about 2 km, it was applicable to forest fires that occur frequently in spring and autumn.
