With infrared thermography, also known as infrared/thermal testing, surface temperatures can be measured or plotted using the infrared radiation that an item emits when heat moves through, to, or from it. Despite having a longer wavelength than visible light, most infrared radiation may be detected with thermal imaging equipment, sometimes known as "infrared cameras." The component or parts being tested must be in direct line of sight with the camera for reliable infrared testing; this cannot be achieved with panel covers closed as this would spread the heat and lead to erroneous readings. When applied correctly, thermal imaging may identify numerous harmful problems, including as inclusions, voids, disbonds, corrosion damage, and delaminations.
