Benefits of Infrared thermography
Infrared thermography offers distinct benefits in fixed-mounted applications within design and production engineering: it is able to 'see' thermal patterns and use it in real time to alarm or control
FLIR opens up the market for infrared thermography
The ability to monitor and assess prototype performance and production processes using thermography is not new, but the cost and complexity of the technology has proved prohibitive to many OEMs
The annual red dot design awards span various categories and is one of the most coveted design prizes worldwide.
The selection criteria used are, among others, the degree of innovation, functionality, ergonomics, durability, ecological compatibility and clarity of function.
The Flir T-Series is a handheld infrared camera that measures the temperature of objects, and takes "heat images" based on the radiation that is emitted by every object, converting the thermal images into a standard electronic format.
The T-Series design merges functionality, ease of use, ergonomics, versatility, and compactness.
User requirements and consistent ergonomic elements have been integrated into the design process to optimise all interfaces and look-and-feel.
The strong colour patterns add to the product personality.
The award ceremony will take place on June 23, 2008 in the Aalto Musiktheater in Essen, Germany.
One of the T-Series infrared cameras will be presented to the Design Zentrum, together with the other award-winning products this year, for a special exhibition in the red dot design museum, the largest exhibition of contemporary design worldwide.
