Problems solved by technology

However, the traditional application methods of infrared cameras have many disadvantages
[0006] One disadvantage, for example, is that the user may have to purchase an infrared camera for each different application (e.g., marine or off-road vehicle), which can lead to increased costs, maintenance expenses, and related expenses associated with multiple infrared cameras
Another disadvantage is that each application typically requires a different IR camera configuration as well as different user settings and processing techniques which, if not properly selected or implemented by the user, may result in poorly captured and displayed images not so satisfactory

Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1A block diagram of an infrared imaging system 100 for capturing and processing infrared images is shown in accordance with one or more embodiments. In one embodiment, infrared imaging system 100 includes processing component 110 , storage component 120 , image capture component 130 , display component 140 , control component 150 and mode sensing component 160 . In another embodiment, the infrared imaging system 100 may further include a communication component 152 and one or more other sensing components 162 .

[0030] In various embodiments, infrared imaging system 100 may represent an infrared imaging device, such as an infrared camera that captures an image (eg, image 170 ). Infrared imaging system 100 may represent any type of infrared camera system, such as one that detects infrared radiation and provides representative data (eg, one or more snapshot images, or a video infrared image). For example, infrared imaging system 100 may represent an infrared cam...
