Patent attributes
A system for monitoring a switchgear includes: an infrared camera for acquiring an infrared image of a switchgear; a visible camera for acquiring a visible image of the switchgear; a processing unit; and an output unit. The processing unit maps a plurality of pixels in the visible image to a plurality of pixels in the infrared image. The plurality of pixels in the visible image includes a plurality of sub-sets of pixels, each sub-set including at least one pixel. Each sub-set of pixels in the visible image is mapped to a corresponding pixel in the infrared image. Each sub-set of pixels in the visible image and the corresponding pixel in the infrared image relates to image data of a same part of the switchgear. The processing unit determines a combined image from the plurality of pixels in the visible image mapped to the plurality of pixels in the infrared image.
