Non-contact Two-dimensional Radiation Thermometer isquare
(ii-1064A)
|
A world-first!
You can record temperatures at 64 points and a visual image
of the object simultaneously while viewing it. |
 |
Shipment to China started in response to SARS!
[Topics]
As the SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) crisis spreads worldwide, an increasing number of inquiries about the isquare (two-dimensional radiation thermometer) have been received.
The isquare can be used to check without physical contact those who enter or leave a country or visit a hospital. It displays the body surface temperature distribution in color and sounds an alarm if necessary.
Its reasonable price, which is less than one tenth of the price of a thermography device, and facial recognition technology using visual images have led to a growing demand for the isquare, and finally shipment to China started.
* In principle, the isquare is an instrument for measuring the surface temperature of physical objects and is not used to measure body temperature. (Please inquire
for further details.)

Mechanism of two-dimensional radiation
thermometer
The two-dimensional radiation thermometer instantaneously displays
infrared measurement data showing temperatures at 64 points in a
grid over a visual image captured by a CMOS image sensor.
Major conventional radiation thermometers are based on one main
element, called a thermopile. A set of these elements arranged in
lines is called a thermopile array. However, in trying to create
a practical thermopile array, the optical system becomes larger
when conventional thermopiles are used, and the sensitivity is degraded
if the size of thermopiles is reduced. Overcoming these obstacles,
HORIBA succeeded in developing a microscopic thermopile with high
sensitivity by using Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) fabricated
using a semiconductor micro machining process. With this innovative
thermopile, the world's first 64-element thermopile array with eight-by-eight
elements has been achieved, resulting in the birth of the isquare
(ii-1064A), a two-dimensional radiation thermometer.

Surface temperature distribution
can be seen at a glance!
Temperatures at 64 points can be measured in increments of
0.1°C. Measurement takes only 0.5 sec. |
· |
The measurement temperature range can
be set freely from -50°C to 1000°C.
An alarm sounds when the temperature exceeds a specified value. |
· |
Recorded image and temperature data can
be edited on a PC without dedicated software.
Data is saved and stored in a compact flash card.
Easy to read and write data from/to a PC |
