Thermal camera assembly (1) comprising a thermal imaging detector (3) providing thermographic images and/or recordings, a protective casing (2) which houses the thermal imaging detector and includes a window (5) with a transparent screen (6), one or more sensors (15;16;20;32;33) arranged in the protective casing and providing signals indicative of a physical quantity or a state, one or more actuators (8;22;28) arranged in the protective casing, and a control unit (9) which is integrated in the protective casing. The control unit is directly connected to the thermal imaging detector to receive the thermographic images and/or recordings and transmit them to the outside, to the sensors to receive the relative signals, and to the actuators to control the latter according to the signals received. The control unit is able to manage and control the communication between all the components of the thermal camera and the outside. The thermal camera assembly is part of a control system for controlling an industrial production process and is used in a relative control method.

Systems and methods according to one or more embodiments are provided for determining an emitted radiation intensity of an object in a thermal image. In one example, a system includes a memory component configured to store a plurality of captured thermal images of a scene and a processor. The processor is configured to select a pixel on a thermal image corresponding to a measured radiation intensity associated with an object in the scene. Real world coordinates of the object are determined. An emitted radiation intensity of the object is calculated using the determined real world coordinates and the measured radiation intensity. Additional systems and methods are also provided.

A system for detecting an oil leak can include: at least one infrared imaging sensor; and an imaging analysis computer operably coupled with the at least one infrared imaging sensor. The imaging analysis computer can be configured to control any infrared imaging sensor and acquire infrared images therefrom at any rate and in any duration. The imaging analysis computer can be configured to analyze the infrared images in order to detect an oil leak. The imaging analysis computer can be configured to detect oil on a surface (e.g., solid surface or water surface) where oil should not be (or is not present in a baseline) in order to determine that there is an oil leak in the vicinity.
