The described device is a compact accessory that transforms compatible Apple smartphones into thermal imagers. It enables users to detect heat signatures, visualize temperature variations, and identify sources of thermal energy in their environment. For instance, it can reveal heat loss around windows, detect electrical faults, or locate water leaks behind walls.
This technology provides a non-invasive method for identifying potential problems in buildings, electrical systems, and mechanical equipment. Its portability and ease of use make it a valuable tool for professionals such as electricians, plumbers, building inspectors, and HVAC technicians. The technology has evolved from bulky, expensive equipment to more accessible and affordable devices, expanding its application to a broader range of users.
