Abstract :
The remote control and measuring of temperature using the Web (ThermoWeb) is based on an expansion of the measuring and operable usage possibilities of the thermovision camera NEC Thermo tracer TH7102WL. This camera´s standard area for reading of temperatures is limited to one central point of the obtained thermal picture of the object. By using the additional programming support it is possible to choose any point inside the obtained thermographic picture of the object and get a quantitative and time-dependent value of temperature distribution. To the thermovision camera has been added a camera that registers the visible spectrum (CCD color camera), thus making it possible to accept pictures from the measured object in IR and in the visible spectrum. The camera system for measuring is controlled by a computer, which has a wireless or physical connection to the Internet. The result of these improvements is the realization of a high quality network system for remote and contactless measuring of temperature over the Web
