APPLICATION OF THERMAL IMAGING CAMERAS FOR SMARTPHONE: SEEK THERMAL COMPACT PRO AND FLIR ONE PRO FOR HUMAN STRESS DETECTION – COMPARISON AND STUDY
Abstract
Thermography as an innovative diagnostic technique with non-contact temperature measurement is used in many industries – science, industry, medicine, and security. When using thermography in the field of health, images and images sequences obtained from thermal imaging cameras allow to record the temperature distribution in order to further recognize whether the state of the body is consistent with the defined parameters or whether there are deviations. However, it is worth paying attention to the measurement accuracy of thermal imaging cameras, their specification, and image quality of thermograms. In the case of recording stress states, measurement discrepancies between thermal imaging cameras for smartphone may affect the final results. Therefore, this article focuses on the comparison of the possibility of recording and detecting stress using two smartphone thermal imaging cameras: SEEK THERMAL Compact Pro and FLIR ONE Pro. The specifications of both cameras were compared. At the same time, the possibility of recording stress using smartphone thermal imaging cameras was confirmed on the basis of an exemplary study. The results of the comparison and analysis show that smartphone thermography can be a quick registration and diagnostic method in behavioral-biomedical issues.
