A thermographic camera or bittersweet camera is a accessory that forms an angel application bittersweet radiation, agnate to a accepted camera that forms an angel application arresting light. Instead of the 450–750 nanometer ambit of the arresting ablaze camera, bittersweet cameras accomplish in wavelengths as continued as 14,000 nm (14 µm).

Applications
Originally developed for aggressive use during the Korean War, thermographic cameras accept boring migrated into added fields as assorted as anesthetic and archeology. More recently, the blurred of prices accept helped ammunition the acceptance of bittersweet examination technology. Advanced eyes and adultcomputer application interfaces abide to enhance the versatility of IR cameras.
