Technical Field

The utility model belongs to the field of infrared monitoring and electronic technology, and specifically relates to a digital dynamic infrared thermal imaging device.


Background

Infrared radiation was discovered in 1800, by Sir William Herschel who measured the temperature of each visible light band and noticed that when the thermometer was placed beyond the red band of the visible spectrum, there was a further increase in temperature. Herschel called this invisible light “infrared”. In 1929, Hungarian physicist Kalman Tihanyi invented the first infrared-sensitive camera based on the idea that all objects emit a heat signal in the form of infrared radiation. An infrared thermographic camera can detect this radiation in a similar way to an ordinary camera that can detect visible light.


Since objects above absolute zero emit infrared light, infrared thermal imaging technology absorbs the infrared light radiated by the target object, and then converts the light signal into an electrical signal, that is, converts infrared radiation that is invisible to the naked eye into a visible image. This technology is widely used in various fields and has the following characteristics: wide temperature measurement range, usually −170˜2000° C. (or need to add filter); high detection accuracy, can distinguish temperatures less than 0.1° C.; response The time is short, and the temperature field of the object can be measured within a few seconds; it can be used to measure small targets or point targets; it is a passive measurement and will not damage the measured temperature field.


At present, the application of infrared thermal imaging technology is becoming more and more popular, involving many fields such as civil aviation, security, border defense, industry, construction, transportation, outdoor and automation.


All existing thermal infrared monitoring device on the market, from low-resolution to high-resolution, the thermal infrared monitoring device monitoring imaging is achieved by measuring the temperature of the object and the surrounding temperature and projecting it to a fixed range of temperature and color temperature corresponding maps The expression of temperature. The range value measured by the thermal camera is generally at a fixed value (0˜300 degrees Celsius), and the temperature range in the general earth environment is −40˜48 degrees Celsius. Thermal infrared radiation will appear when the temperature reaches a certain level, for example, the temperature of steel reaches 600 When the temperature is lower than 600 degrees, then the object does not show flame or emit thermal infrared radiation, the human eye cannot perceive the temperature. The existing thermal camera partially solves the problem that the human eye cannot distinguish the temperature of the object, and can observe the change of the object temperature within the frame of a fixed and unified thermal corresponding color temperature map.


Existing thermal camera observe changes in object temperature within the framework of a fixed and unified thermal corresponding color temperature map. However, in the circuit design of the existing thermal camera, there is no circuit structure that can adjust and monitor the color temperature range. Therefore, in the process of temperature observation, the temperature monitoring display range of the thermal camera cannot be adjusted in real time.
