[GBlist] Infrared imaging

["Jim Wasley" <Jwasley@sarup.uwm.edu>]

Hello greenbuilding. At the risk of cross-posting this to death, I'd like to join your ranks with a question.
As a professor of Architecture teaching environmental control issues, I'm interested in finding infrared imaging equipment that might be useful for student use. .. it would need to be low cost, robust, and easy to use. It would be nice to be able to use it for research purposes, but I'm really thinking of something that you could turn students loose with to simply explore the thermal world. 
Any leads, recommendations or thoughts would be welcome! Any protocol information for building thermal performance studies would also be helpful... the web seems dominated by military, medical and manufacturing applications, with little that I've found about energy auditing.
