Method for Non-radiometric Thermal Video into Radiometric Thermal Images Conversion

In this paper, we present the method developed by the team to overcome significant limitations in the processing of thermographic images and video clips, which are related to the inability of all IR cameras and licensed software to record and process non-radiometric format. By means of the presented method, the productivity and accuracy of videos and images taken by affordable, consumer-oriented IR cameras are expanded, and it makes them functionally applicable in the scientific applications. The obtained results show that the presented method can be successfully applied to extract the temperature information from non-radiometric digital images and can serve as a basis for the development of an algorithm to increase the resolution of thermograms.
