Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNIP,volume 9768))

Abstract

We present a prototype system composed practically of an IR camera and a video projector with the purpose to create a device that projects the thermal map directly on the observed surface. The novelty of this work lies on the building of a portable tool, the development of software and the proposing of a calibration procedure to be used in industrial and construction sites from thermal inspectors.
