Commercial Infrared Camera Market Outlook - 2027
The global commercial infrared camera market size is experiencing significant growth and is expected to grow considerably in the next few years. Infrared (IR) cameras are imaging devices that form images based on thermal or infrared radiation, similar to a common camera, which forms images using visible light and then converts into an electronic signal, which is then treated to produce a thermal image and perform temperature calculations. Commercial infrared cameras generate monochrome images as the image sensors used in commercial infrared cameras do not differentiate different wavelengths of infrared radiation. They not only monitor thermal performance but also identify and evaluate the severity of heat-related problems. They use cooled infrared detectors and uncooled infrared detectors. Cooled infrared detectors are contained in vacuum-sealed cases and cryogenically cooled. Uncooled infrared detectors use sensors operated at ambient temperature. Commercial infrared cameras with detectors are used for various purposes such as security, home automation, and fire & gas detection purposes. Commercial infrared cameras can capture images through harsh environments such as smoke, haze, fog, and water vapor. This resulted in the usage of these cameras for surveillance and security end uses.
COVID-19 scenario analysis:
- Numerous organizations, grocery stores, and working companies, including Amazon are using commercial infrared cameras on workers to detect their body temperature. This has augmented the demand for commercial infrared cameras amid COVID-19.
- On the other hand, in April, the Drug and Food Administration relaxed some regulations on the usage of commercial infrared cameras to extend the access of technology.
- In addition, to limit the spread of the highly contagious COVID-19 virus, various businesses across the globe have deployed social distancing requirements, stringent cleaning protocols, and capacity limitations as part of their plan to safely reopen. In this scenario, thermal imaging camera systems play a pivotal role with retailers, casinos, and manufacturing facilities to invest and deploy infrared camera solution to help them to proactively detect an elevated temperature in visitors or employees prior to entry.
