Thermal Images on F1 Quali Coverage
Discussion
Good evening photography people. I hope you are having a nice weekend.
Watching the F1 qualification coverage this season (can't remember if Sky or BBC) they show some thermal image video of the front tyres on some cars.
I wondered if anyone knew about the kit that was being used.
I'm particularly interested to find out if the price range is accessible for an ordinary chap.
I also wonder if there might be some clever workaround / bodge using conventional equipment (GoPro and the like).
The application I have in mind is hillclimb / sprint events where the effect of tyre temperature is a very interesting and controversial topic.
I had a wee google but don't really know what I'm looking for. I'd hence be grateful if anyone could give me any pointers.
Cheers,
Eric
