Thermal imaging has revolutionized home inspection over the past two decades, granting plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians and even firefighters the Superman-like ability to see through floors, walls and smoke. Hikmicro is the world’s leading AI thermal brand, which is why so many industry experts and casual home owners choose its range of thermal imagers. These portable devices provide a non-invasive, real-time solution for identifying potentially expensive problems early, including leaks, patchy insulation and blockages.
But just being able to see a thermal image doesn't necessarily mean you'll understand it. While the technology has made it easier than ever to keep tabs on what’s going on beneath the surface, device configuration and difficulty interpreting thermal imagery have always impacted its accessibility.
What if you could bypass all of that in just one click? What if you could rely on AI-powered detection to either identify the problem or avoid giving you a false positive? Well, that's exactly what Hikmicro's AI-powered SuperScene Mode is designed to do. No manual setup, no prior experience and no guesswork required. Best of all, it’s only a free firmware download away for compatible devices.
Expert Knowledge, AI-Enabled
By taking its world-leading smart thermal imaging tech and supercharging it with AI, Hikmicro has made accurate thermal imaging more obtainable for everyone, from home inspectors to HVAC technicians and plumbers to DIYers. Whereas before, users had to rely on training and experience to adjust parameters and understand thermal patterns, SuperScene Mode handles the legwork via two innovative functions: Expert Presets and Smart SuperScene.
Expert Presets: Don’t have the time or know-how to manually set up your thermal imager? The Expert Presets function automatically optimizes the device for the most common thermal imaging situations, so you can fast-track straight to assessing the problem in just one click. Presets include both water leak and insulation defect detection, as well as floor heating inspection.
Smart SuperScene: Here's the really clever bit: this breakthrough innovation goes beyond just delivering a thermal readout like other brands. Smart SuperScene uses dual-spectrum fusion to detect both thermal and visible light. What this means is that it understands when the device is directed at a wall, floor or pipe. This is crucial because it allows the AI to flag anomalies on a scene-by-scene basis, reducing false alarms to near zero and boosting detection accuracy by 61%.
What’s going on behind the SuperScenes?
So, how is all of this possible? Well, Hikmicro didn’t become the world’s leading AI thermal brand overnight. It’s currently celebrating its 10th anniversary (a lifetime in the AI industry), and it’s used that decade of specialist expertise to bolster its AI’s effectiveness.
As such, SuperScene Mode has been co-developed with thousands of industry experts and trained using tens of thousands of real-world examples. What’s more, while some AI algorithms rely on cloud-based processing, Hikmicro’s AI operates locally. That means everything exists on the device in question, allowing for instant, private usage, anywhere and at any time.
SuperScene Mode is already available on a range of Hikmicro thermal imaging devices. Select models from the Eco Series, B Series and Pocket Series are supercharged with the AI tech. Existing customers don’t have to miss out, either. If you own a compatible device, you can simply update it to firmware V5.5.112 and start using SuperScene Mode today.
