Image display apparatus
A control section according to an embodiment of the present invention is configured to: set, as a first temperature, a temperature obtained from a thermal image at a first position contained in a first infrared image corresponding to a surrounding environment in the thermal image, and set, as a second temperature, a temperature obtained from the thermal image at a second position contained in a second infrared image corresponding to a duct or the like in the thermal image; calculate an upper limit and a lower limit of a temperature range by using the first temperature and the second temperature; and control a display section to display the thermal image such that temperature distribution on the subject is represented by colors within the temperature range having the upper limit and the lower limit that have been calculated.
1. An image display apparatus comprising:
a display section having a screen for displaying a thermal image in which a temperature distribution on a subject is represented by colors, the subject including a pipe for a fluid to flow and a surrounding environment of the pipe; and
a control section configured to control the display section,
the control section being configured to,
set, as a first temperature, a temperature obtained from the thermal image at a first position in a first image corresponding to the surrounding environment in the thermal image, and set, as a second temperature, a temperature obtained from the thermal image at a second position in a second image corresponding to the pipe in the thermal image,
calculate an upper limit and a lower limit of a temperature range using calculation formulae which use the first temperature as a first variable, the second temperature as a second variable, and a first coefficient which takes one of a plurality of different predetermined numerical values as a third variable,
control the display section to display the thermal image such that the temperature distribution on the subject is represented by colors within the temperature range having the upper limit and the lower limit,
control the display section to display a first rectagular image such that the first rectangular image is superimposed on the thermal image, the first rectangular image being a user interface for changing the first coefficient in the calculation formulae, and the first rectangular image having a longer side in a direction in which the plurality of different predetermined numerical values are arranged in an ascending order or a descending order, wherein
a first end of the longer side of the first rectangular image corresponds to a minimum value of the plurality of different predetermined numerical values,
a second end of the longer side of the first rectangular image corresponds to a maximum value of the plurality of different predetermined numerical values, and
the first rectangular image has positions corresponding to respective numerical values of the plurality of different predetermined numerical values excluding the minimum value and the maximum value, the positions being spaced apart from each other at predetermined intervals in the direction of the longer side.
2. The image display apparatus as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the control section is configured to reset the second temperature when the image display apparatus moves.
3. The image display apparatus as set forth in claim 1 , wherein
the control section is configured to control the display section to display a second rectangular image when the upper limit and the lower limit are calculated, the second rectangular image representing the temperature range and being displayed such that the second rectangular image is superimposed on the thermal image,
the second rectangular image has a longer side in an increasing or decreasing direction of temperature of the temperature range, and
a first end of the longer side of the second rectangular image corresponds to the upper limit and a second end of the longer side of the second rectangular image corresponds to the lower limit.
4. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the control section is configured to control the display section to display the thermal image such that the temperature distribution on the subject is represented by variations in at least one of (i) hue, (ii) saturation, or (iii) lightness.
5. The image display apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the control section is configured to fix the at least one of (i) hue, (ii) saturation, or (iii) lightness for an upper limit image and a lower limit image in the thermal image when controlling the display section to display the thermal image, the upper limit image being an image having a temperature higher than the upper limit and the lower limit image being an image having a temperature lower than the lower limit.
6. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the display section is configured to display a visible light image of the subject, and
the control section is configured to control the display section to display the visible light image such that the visible light image is superimposed on the thermal image.
