[NEWS] TBT Proposes Systematic Monitoring Solution for Industrial Plant Safety with Thermal Imaging Cameras

TBT Inc. offers cutting-edge solutions that enhance safety and risk management in factory facilities through high-performance thermal imaging cameras and an integrated management system (TMS).Equipment aging diagnosis and fire preventionTMS (Thermal Management System) can record and analyze temperature data of equipment in process in real time, pre-designate hot spots (high-risk areas), and provide notifications.This system monitors the aging of pipes, electrical wiring, and cooling/ventilation equipment that operate for long periods of time in power plants, semiconductor plants, steel plants, and chemical plants, enabling predictive maintenance 24 hours.Major surveillance camera models and features- TPV‑IAHDR / TPV‑IAHW seriesHigh sensitivity thermal imaging with NETD <55 mK, 1280×720 resolution , built-in Full HD zoom color camera and laser illuminator (up to 200 m) , automatic/manual temperature compensation, wide detection area setting possibleQuickly detects leaks in pipes, overheating of electrical connections, and rising equipment temperatures within the factory.- TPV‑IASW‑M3‑B / M3‑D (Dual CCTV)Provides thermal imaging + visual imaging dual mode, AI-based human and machine detection function , strobe light and audio alarm, adjustable area settings to reduce false detection rate , specialized fire prevention, and immediate response to various abnormal situations.Scenario for building an integrated surveillance systemAutomatic detection of hazardous equipment : Install TPV-IAHDR in pipes, distribution panels, and outlets to automatically detect slight temperature rises or overheating.AI-based event notification : The M3 dual camera detects abnormal movement of people or equipment in real time and automatically sends voice and light alerts.Control system and data integration : TMS analyzes temperature history data by hour, month, and year, provides HOT-SPOT tracking, and provides regular reports.Expected effectsEarly detection of abnormalities → Early response to fire, leakage, and overheating risksContinuous data recording → Planned maintenance possible through analysis of equipment aging trends24 hours surveillance system → Prevents safety accidents through continuous surveillance even at night and in bad weather. 

[NEWS] Pothole Detection Based on Visible & Thermal Imaging Fusion - Technical Report (2024.9)

 Researchers at Colorado State University and others have developed a tool that automatically detects, classifies, and visualizes potholes as a map by synthesizing visible light images and thermal images using a thermal imaging camera mounted on a car.- When using the RTFNet algorithm, an F1 score of 93.7% was achieved during the day and 90.9% at night.- Automatic recognition of dark environments (Bright-Dark detector), GPS mapping GUI tool includedWhy a thermal imaging camera?- Temperature difference-based detection: Temperature differences caused by water accumulated inside a pothole, changes in air pressure, etc. can be easily identified through thermal imaging.- Excellent night and bad weather performance: TBT thermal imaging cameras guarantee high contrast image quality even in fog, rain, snow, and at night.- Thermal Predictive Management: TBT's Thermal Management System (TMS) enables hot spot detection and historical analysis, enabling long-term monitoring of road condition changes.High-performance thermal imaging cameras provided by TBT Inc. could become a new alternative for pothole detection and prevention monitoring systems.Which TBT product is right for you?TPV‑IAHW / TPV‑IAHDR series – Uncooled high-sensitivity camera (NETD <55 mK), equipped with a Full HD zoom camera – Optimized for temperature anomaly detection, suitable for early detection of thermal cracks or subsidence on road surfacesTBX‑15N or TBX‑10 series– 640×480 Simultaneous support for 4K color and thermal imaging, 2-3 axis gimbal + gyro stabilization – can be installed on a vehicle to detect pothole areas in real time.TMS Management System – Includes pre-designation of hazardous areas (HOT SPOT), real-time temperature monitoring, and notification functions in case of abnormalities.TBT's differentiated thermal imaging technology (high sensitivity, high resolution, stabilized imagery, and temperature-based history recording) offers significant advantages over conventional visible-light-based pothole detection methods in terms of: nighttime responsiveness, climate adaptability, and prevention accuracy. In particular, TBT solutions are expected to play a key role in the automation and advancement of road maintenance systems and smart city transportation infrastructure.
