A mobile application utilizing the Android operating system and leveraging the capabilities of a thermal imaging camera. These applications transform a smartphone or tablet into a device capable of detecting and visualizing temperature differences in the environment. As an example, such a mobile application can display the heat signatures of objects and individuals.
The utility of these applications spans numerous fields, including building inspection (detecting insulation deficiencies), electrical maintenance (identifying overheating components), search and rescue operations (locating individuals in low-visibility conditions), and even healthcare diagnostics (detecting fever or inflammation). Historically, thermal imaging technology was expensive and confined to specialized devices. The integration with mobile platforms has significantly reduced costs and broadened accessibility, making thermal imaging more readily available to a wider user base.
