A measurement of energy efficiency in the construction industry aims to reduce permanently energy requirements in design, construction and use of new buildings, sannation and reconstruction of the existing ones. Over the long term, with the expected increasing in the price of energy and the development of awareness about energy conservation and environmental protection, thermal imaging methods will certainly find their wide application in the construction industry. Infrared thermal camera is used to estimate the temperature. However, we do not see all the details of interest on the thermal image, therefore we suggest using the fusion of visual and thermal images of the same part of the building recorded simultaneously. The analysis images of the object obtained by fusion of television and infrared thermal imaging shows the areas of interest for further processing.

With the deepening of the energy conservation of the building, energy saving from the original design of building energy-saving gradually turned to the field detection and completion acceptance, which requires a corresponding energy-efficient means of detection. With the development of infrared technology, the combination of infrared technology and detection methods of building energy-saving, to further promote the development of building energy efficiency testing work. Compared to the traditional heat flow meter or hot-box method, infrared thermal imaging method has no effect on the measured object, detecting the surface temperature of quick reaction speed, accompanying with wide temperature range and high precision, is widely used in various fields of testing work, which has been particularly prominent in the thermal defect detection. In this paper, the method of infrared thermography is used to confirm whether the thermal defects exist in energy-saving construction or not. Testing results show that infrared thermography can accurately reflect the temperature distribution of building wall surface. Infrared thermal imaging to detect the building surface's energy efficiency, which is providing efficient and accurate means of detection for the evaluation of the building energy efficiency. This is to help carry out a comprehensive building energy-saving testing.

Heating films were prepared by using poly(methyl methacrylate) and polybutadiene composites containing graphite. The heating film was prepared by casting the as-made polymer composite on PET film. Copper electrodes were attached to both ends of the as-prepared film, and the heating characteristics of the film was analyzed while applying DC voltage. The electrical conductivity and the heating temperature of the heating films depended on the size, the structure, the content and the dispersion characteristics of the graphite in the composite. The electrical resistance of the heating film was controlled to adjust the heating temperature of the film. The relationship between the physical/chemical structure and the heating characteristics of the composite film was studied by measuring the heating temperature as functions of film thickness and resistance by using an infrared thermal imaging camera. The lower the film resistance, the higher the heating temperature of the film. The surface temperature was uniform throughout the film.

COVID-19 and its devastating yet unforeseeable effects affect the entire global economy value chain. Effects will be long-lasting and interfere with the way construction worked so far. Losses in the industry are expected to run into billions; spending on new buildings are predicted to decrease sharply and on a global long-term. COVID-19 is, depending on the viewpoint, either a “White Swan,” which is a probable event, causing massive consequences, or a “Black Swan,” which is additionally not foreseeable. The European Green Deal presented by the European Commission could serve as a new Marshall Plan to enable the long-awaited digitisation of the construction industry. A whole industry sector is called upon to undergo a digital empowerment within a very short period, for which other branches of industry have had years or even decades. Can this crisis serve as a spark for eventually starting the digitalisation of the construction industry?

Work temperature is a factor, which has a strong influence on the work of a semiconductor electronic element. Operation of an electronic element in an excessive temperature causes the element not to work correctly. For this reason, monitoring the temperature of the element is necessary. One of the methods, which allows the monitoring of electronic element temperature is thermography. This non-contact method can also be used during the operation of the electronic element. The reading of a thermal camera depends on several factors. One of these factors is the sharpness of the registered thermograms. For this reason, research was carried out to develop a simple tool that allows a clear classification of thermograms of electronic elements into sharp and unsharp thermograms. In the research carried-out, the sharpness of the registered thermograms of electronic elements was determined by different sharpness measures. In the research, it was shown that in the case of thermograms classified as sharp, a smaller error of temperature measurement was obtained with the use of a thermal imaging camera.

We have detected defects micro-pipes and a cluster of impurities in semi-insulating 6H-SiC substrates using long-wavelength infrared thermal imaging camera (IR-camera) with 8 ~ 14 µm in non-destructive and non-contact. Also we have evaluated the thermal influence of defects on the entire substrates from the observation results of scanning laser microscope (SLM) and light scattering tomography (LST). Through the process, it was certificated that the defects in the substrates could be detected with relatively macroscopic scale (8  6 mm2). Moreover, through a temperature profile processing by a 0.1 K thermal resolution, we estimated thermal behavior of the defect areas in the 6H-SiC precisely. The IR-camera is considered as effective technique for evaluating the defects in the intermediate range between micro and macro scale.
