Holborn and F. Kurlbaum in 1901.This device superimposed a thin, heated filament over the object to be measured and relied on the operator’s eye to detect when the filament vanished.The object temperature was then read from a scale on the pyrometer.</ins></div></td></tr>

With greater use of brightness pyrometers, it became obvious that problems existed with relying on knowledge of the value of emissivity. Emissivity was found to change, often drastically, with surface roughness, bulk and surface composition, and even the temperature itself.</ins></div></td></tr>

They rely on the fact that Planck's law, which relates temperature to the intensity of radiation emitted at individual wavelengths, can be solved for temperature if Planck’s statement of the intensities at two different wavelengths is divided. This solution assumes that the emissivity is the same at both wavelengths and cancels out in the division. </ins>This is <ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">known as the gray body assumption. Ratio pyrometers are essentially two brightness pyrometers in a single instrument. The operational principles of the ratio pyrometers were developed in the 1920s and 1930s, and they were commercially available in 1939.</ins></div></td></tr>

The amount of error depends on the emissivities and the wavelengths where the measurements are taken.Two-color ratio pyrometers cannot measure whether a material’s emissivity is wavelength dependent.</ins></div></td></tr>
