Professional Lifelong Learning
Infrared cameras are used in many technical and non-technical fields to visualize the temperature distribution. They are excellent tools that can contactlessly detect faults and accurately measure temperatures. A professional should be aware of the laws of infrared physics when measuring with an infrared camera and especially when evaluating thermograms, otherwise, he/she can easily obtain misleading information and do more harm than good.

Our story
At the time of the establishment of our research centre, we started as a team of doctoral students. We gradually gained research and pedagogical experience and moved into the role of trainers. Our team practically tried working with infrared cameras in the field as well as the laboratory. As part of the solution of research and development projects, we have created many different measuring systems and methodologies for their practical use on our own or with partners. We want to pass on our knowledge and experience to the staff performing thermodiagnostics because we feel social responsibility for the state of knowledge of the staff performing thermodiagnostics and for how infrared cameras are used. Therefore, we have become an Approved training facility of the ATD CR in the field of technical thermodiagnostics. We also solve non-technical applications in cooperation with the Integrated Rescue System of the Czech Republic for effective use of infrared cameras in crises and epidemic threats. We pass on our knowledge to the next generation and our team grows with new colleagues who continue their research with us after defending their dissertation theses.
