A method for operating a thermal imaging camera includes measuring two-dimensional temperature information including a thermal image of a setting using an infrared detector array of the thermal imaging camera, the infrared detector array including a plurality of pixels sensitive to infrared radiation. At least one of ambient humidity information and ambient air temperature information is provided. An evaluation device is used to calculate two-dimensional information about a mold formation risk. The method includes generating a mold risk map of the setting using a mold growth model and using the calculated two-dimensional temperature information, and the provided at least one of ambient humidity information and ambient air temperature information.

Method for operating a thermal imaging camera, and thermal imaging camera

The disclosure relates to a method for the noise optimization of a camera, in particular a handheld thermal imaging camera. Images are captured by means of the camera in at least one method step; at least one movement characteristic variable is detected by means of at least one sensor unit of the camera in at least one method step; and image data of captured images is averaged by means of a computing unit of the camera in at least one method step. At least a number of images to be averaged are determined by means of the computing unit of the camera at least on the basis of an intensity of the detected movement characteristic variable, in particular a change rate, in at least one method step.
