Thermal Imaging Cameras (TICs) have just recently become affordable enough for mainstream use, but the technology has been used for more than two centuries. Here's a timeline of what's happened in the last 222 years.

More and more contractors and engineers are finding out that having the ability to see the infrared spectrum by putting a thermal imaging camera in the palm of their hand saves time and money.

Getting a thermal device for your toolbox at home and/or work might be the smartest buy you make all year.

Take a look at this slideshow to learn how thermal cameras came to be and just a few of the things they can do.
