Using an IR Imager to Monitor Drywall Installation
Finishing drywall is a routine part of commercial and residential construction. A thermal imager can be useful in helping to assess the drying process associated with newly-installed compound.
Applying Thermography
Thermography is a versatile nondestructive test technique that has a wide variety of applications. In short, thermography can be applied to any situation where knowledge of heat patterns and associated temperatures across a surface will provide meaningful data about a system, object, or process.
Infraspection Institute Announces Student Scholarship Program
Burlington, NJ - October 15, 2026 - Infraspection Institute announced today the launch of its new Emerging Scholarship Program. The program is designed to encourage young people to explore infrared thermography and introduce them to career opportunities within the growing infrared industry.
How to Calculate Emittance
Utilizing correct emittance values is imperative for accurate non-contact temperature measurements. Knowing how to accurately calculate emittance values can help to ensure the accuracy of infrared temperature measurements.
Defining Ambient Temperature
Ambient temperature is a term which appears in nearly all thermographic reports. However, many thermographers define ambient differently. Some define it as room air temperature while others define it as the temperature inside of the component enclosure.
