Abstract
A thermal imaging system having a remote user interface comprises a portable thermal imager (such as a handheld thermal imager) having a communication interface for transfer of data. The imager further has an on-board memory in which image data is stored as well as an imager display to show a processed thermal image based on the image data stored in memory. A remote computer is operative to communicate with the thermal imager via the communication interface. The computer runs software operative to transfer the image data to the computer and show the processed thermal image on a computer display thereof on a real-time basis.
