Infrared Thermal Imaging as a Tool in University Physics Education
Mollmann, Klaus-Peter; Vollmer, Michael
European Journal of Physics, v28 n3 pS37-S50 May 2007
Infrared thermal imaging is a valuable tool in physics education at the university level. It can help to visualize and thereby enhance understanding of physical phenomena from mechanics, thermal physics, electromagnetism, optics and radiation physics, qualitatively as well as quantitatively. We report on its use as lecture demonstrations, student projects and practical lab work. (Contains 15 figures.)
