"Unveiling the Revolutionary 'Thermometry Camera': Exploring the Intricacies of Thermal magIC"

Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are developing a thermometry system called Thermal MagIC that uses nano-sized spheres embedded in objects to measure temperature. The magnetic signals produced by these spheres correspond to specific temperatures, allowing for high spatial resolution temperature imaging. In a recent study, the researchers characterized the temperature sensitivity and spatial resolution of their imaging system, bringing them closer to creating a reliable "thermometry camera." The next step is to measure temperature gradients, which would enable true temperature imaging.
