The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for processing infrared data. The methods may include obtaining one or more raw infrared data frames related to a target object. Each of the one or more raw infrared data frames may include raw infrared data including raw temperature information and raw grayscale information of the target object. The methods may further include generating one or more target infrared data frames corresponding to the one or more raw infrared data frames based on the raw infrared data. Each of the one or more target infrared data frames may include a frame header, an information header, and a data area. And for at least one of the one or more target infrared data frames, the data area may include substantially complete raw temperature information and substantially complete raw grayscale information.

Disclosed are various embodiments for image-based verification of checklist items. In one embodiment, a user request is received to record a temperature reading of a food item using a handheld temperature sensor. In response to the user request, the temperature reading is received and an image of the handheld temperature sensor is captured. The image of the handheld temperature sensor is stored in association with the temperature reading.

Thermal monitors comprising a substrate with at least one camera position on a bottom surface thereof, a wireless communication controller and a battery. The camera has a field of view sufficient to produce an image of at least a portion of a wafer support, the image representative of the temperature within the field of view. Methods of using the thermal monitors are also described.

A system includes a first printed circuit board (PCB), a temperature sensor, a switching circuit provided on the first PCB, and a controller. The temperature sensor is configured to measure temperature of at least an area of the first PCB. The controller is configured to trigger the switching circuit to turn off power to the first PCB, based at least in part on the temperature sensor detecting a temperature above a temperature threshold. The system is able to disrupt power much faster than conventional methods of power protection which may have a blind spot to certain areas of the first PCB, since these methods rely on power disruption when a maximum power is sensed.

A thermal imaging system for a cooking appliance is capable of being calibrated for any arrangement of cooktop burners disposed on a surface of a cooking appliance. A thermal imaging system can be calibrated by processing a received thermal scan of a surface of a cooking appliance having a particular cooktop arrangement to identify a plurality of cooktop burners on the surface of the cooking appliance for the particular arrangement, determine a number of cooktop burners in the particular arrangement, and determine one or more locations of the cooktop to assign to each of the cooktop burners. Further, the determined one or more locations assigned to each of the cooktop burners can be stored in association with a respective cooktop burner. Once calibrated, the thermal imaging system can calculate a temperature for each of the cooktop burners to be used in performing subsequent control and/or safety functions.

An apparatus and method for inspecting articles incorporating positive temperature coefficient resistors. The inspection apparatus includes a computing device, a power source, a housing, a support, and a thermal imager, each mounted within an interior volume of the housing. The inspection method includes receiving a first thermal image of the unpowered article mounted within the support and receiving a second thermal image of the powered article after an optimized time delay. The method further includes outputting a health indication of the positive temperature coefficient resistors based on a comparison of the first thermal image and the second thermal image.

An electronic device may include: a display having at least one hole disposed in at least a part thereof such that light from the outside can be transmitted therethrough; a light-emitting element disposed under the display and configured to output a first infrared ray to the outside; a first light-receiving element disposed under the display at a position corresponding to the at least one hole, and configured to receive a second infrared ray transmitted from the outside; a second light-receiving element disposed under the display at a position where light from the outside is shielded; and at least one processor configured to, based on that a first sensing value according to the second infrared ray, output from the first light-receiving element, satisfies a first specified condition, while the first infrared ray is output: based on that a second sensing value output from the second light-receiving element does not satisfy a second specified condition, identify that a proximate object exists, and based on that the second sensing value satisfies the second specified condition, identify that the proximate object does not exist.

An electronic device for enhancing accuracy upon contactless body temperature measurement is provided. The electronic device includes an image sensor for obtaining an image of an object, a temperature sensor disposed at a position adjacent to the image sensor for measuring a temperature of the obtained object, and a controller for performing control to determine the temperature of the object using a focal length of a camera module including the image sensor corresponding to a time of obtaining the image of the object and a temperature output from the temperature sensor corresponding to the time of obtaining the image of the object.

An automated computer-vision system is used for timing the sand drainage in a sand management arrangement that handles flowback of sand and other solid materials in a slurry of flow from well(s) at wellsite(s). The automated system uses infrared imaging of flowback equipment to determine a level of solids (sand) in the equipment. Image processing of the temperature differences of the content in the equipment gives a demarcation of the sand and liquid separation in the equipment, which is used to determine how much sand is present. If the equipment is found to be full or above a predefined benchmark, the automated system operates a discharge skid to discharge the contents to a waste tank.

A healthcare device for asthmatic patients that can help in reducing and avoiding risk factors that can trigger one or more symptoms of asthma. The healthcare device includes an infrared sensor, a pulse oximeter sensor, a UV sensor, an atmospheric sensor, and an air quality sensor for measuring values of different risk factors including ambient temperature, body temperature, blood oxygen saturation level, heart rate, intensity of ultraviolet radiations, humidity level, altitude, CO2 levels, and total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs).
