The document discusses a new super resolution technology that can upgrade the image quality of thermal imaging cameras. It works by taking multiple rapid images using natural hand movements and combining them using an algorithm to produce an image with 4 times as many pixels and 1.6 times better geometric resolution. This allows defects to be more easily spotted even from a distance. The technology can upgrade a camera by one class without needing a new camera by just updating the software.

The application
Conditions for precise thermographing.
Optimum thermographing is basically very simple: the
better the image resolution and the more pixels, the more
detailed and clearer the display of the measuring object
will be. And high-resolution image quality is particularly
essential when, in your applications, you are unable to get
very close to the measuring object, or need to detect the
subtlest variations in temperature. Because the more you
can detect in the thermal image, the better your analysis
will be.

The upgrade for even greater detail.
With the SuperResolution Technology you can now easily improve the innovation from Testo uses your natural hand movements and takes
image quality of your Testo thermal imaging camera by one class, i.e. multiple images very rapidly one after another. Using an algorithm,
with four times as many pixels, and a geometric resolution improved these are then calculated to obtain an image. The result: Four times as
by a factor of 1.6. E.g., turn 160 x 120 pixels into 320 x 240 pixels at a many readings for you and a much higher thermal image resolution –
