Thermography

What can you tell me about that, Dave Mack?

Nancy, the heat-seeking thermal imaging that's being used to search the soulmate in the hooker disappearance, it really is an important piece of equipment because it's, first of all, very, very expensive.

And it was not being used, apparently.

The FLIR system, not being used.

when looking for Lynette Hooker.

The Soulmate has this forward-looking infrared, the FLIR thermal imaging system.

This is capable of detecting heat signatures in the darkness.

And yet, apparently, Ryan Hooker didn't use it and didn't plan on using it the night Lynette disappeared.

We've only got one segment left to talk here, probably about seven or eight minutes.

Thermal imaging is really interesting to me, and you've got some ideas.

We all know about flying a drone or taking a picture with a thermal imager of your rigid line or your coax to see where is there a heat problem there, or maybe your switch panel, your breaker panel.

But you've got even more ideas on how – to effectively use a thermal imaging camera at your broadcast facility.

Why don't you talk about those for a minute?

Well, I've been training chat with its amazing ability to read pictures.

You get some stuff in the background.

That's for actual equipment, whatever.

I was actually thinking about this because I've done a few, you know, basically had people send me product to review and test out.

And I was thinking about reaching out to a thermal imaging camera company because it's like, I could make an entire show out of how to use a thermal camera on a homestead, how to spot problems with your solar panels, how to find leaky, drafty areas in your house or poor insulation.

Like you said, how to find a breaker that's going bad or that's got too much load on it or whatever.

how to find wet spots.

Uh, Infatech's got some really small ones too.

Like you can put it on a pistol, like a thermal on a pistol.

Well, and you can even get thermal imaging cameras now.

They're not super high res, but they'll, you

Before, obviously, we get going into the world this month.

of thermal imaging.

If you'd like to introduce yourself once again, Tony, who are you, where do you come from, and what makes you you?

Right, well, I'm Tony Nevin.

We've gone through elephants.

We're now going to go into more technology, I guess is the better way of phrasing this.

And in particular... thermal imaging now once again i've asked the same question for the last two slight different angle with this one but tell the listeners you know what is it and what is there to love about thermal imaging what makes it so cool

great well thermal imaging reads the radiated heat of anything whether it be a structure building but when it's a living patient it's you're reading the heat coming off that individual.
