español: Pirómetro


English: A pyrometer is a non-contacting device that intercepts and measures thermal radiation, a process known as pyrometry.

This device can be used to determine the temperature of an object's surface.

The word pyrometer comes from the Greek word for fire, "πυρ" (pyro), and meter, meaning to measure. Pyrometer was originally coined to denote a device capable of measuring temperatures of objects above incandescence (i.e. objects bright to the human eye).
