Case Studies
Real-world deployments of IRmodules thermal cores and imaging modules — condition monitoring, automated inspection, and research applications.
Thermal Health Monitoring for a Dairy Herd: Finding Fever Before Symptoms
How a large dairy operation put radiometric thermal cameras at the milking parlor exit and over the calving pens — catching feverish cows days before visible symptoms, and turning herd health from rounds-and-rectal-thermometers into continuous screening.

Thermal Watch Over a Battery Warehouse: Catching Troubled Cells in Storage and Recycling
How a battery logistics and recycling operator put fixed radiometric cameras over its storage aisles and sorting floor — turning smoldering-cell fires from after-the-fact discoveries into early-hour interventions, and satisfying an insurer that nearly walked away.

From Core to Payload in Four Months: An OEM's UAV Thermal Camera Integration
How a drone-payload OEM took a 23-gram thermal core from evaluation board to shipping dual-sensor gimbal in four months — the mechanical, thermal and interface decisions that made the schedule, and what they'd do differently.

Thermography in the Test Lab: Watching Stress and Fatigue Develop in Materials Testing
How a university fatigue lab added high-sensitivity thermal imaging to its test frames — mapping stress concentration thermoelastically, watching crack precursors as heat, and cutting specimen count on composite qualification programs.

Watching the Melt Pool: Cooled Thermal Monitoring for Laser Processing and Additive Manufacturing
How a laser-cladding and metal 3D-printing workshop put cooled MWIR cameras on its melt pools — turning spatter, porosity and overheating from post-mortem findings into in-process signals, and cutting scrap on high-value parts.

Thermal Bridge Surveys for a Building Retrofit Program: Finding the Heat Leaks Before the Money
How an energy-services company ran radiometric thermal-bridge surveys across a municipal retrofit portfolio — turning insulation defects and air leaks from guesswork into mapped, quantified targets before renovation budgets were committed.
