A Perfect Tool for Finding Wildlife
Tools for detecting wildlife have evolved a lot in the last century. Binoculars are now quite commonly used throughout the world, followed by light amplifying nighttime vision systems that can be used to spot animals at night. But even nightvision sometimes isn't enough for spotting animals in difficult to see conditions, which is why FLIR offers a range of ever-evolving handheld thermal monoculars for detecting wildlife. Thermal imaging cameras see through darkness and ignore visual camouflage. Unlike all other nighttime vision systems, they require no light whatsoever to produce a clear image. Many warm-blooded animals are mostly active at night, using the cover of darkness to remain undetected, but will show up clearly in a thermal image, even in total darkness and in practically all weather conditions.

FLIR OGI Camera Helps Oil and Gas Company Reduce Operating Costs by 35 Percent
A new, efficient leak-detection solution for monitoring fugitive emissions and hydrocarbon leaks 24/7 is helping reduce the environmental impact of emissions, reduce operating costs, and even prevent potential regulatory fees for a US oil and gas company.

Machine vision: pick and place with FLIR thermal imaging cameras
Machine vision inspections using visual cameras can occasionally cause recognition problems if the product and background have too little color contrast. In such cases, thermal imaging cameras can be a practical solution - especially if the product has a different temperature than the transport medium. In many cases such temperature differences are caused by the production process. Injection molding applications are ideal for this, for example, because the produced parts come out of the machine here at a relatively high temperature.

Understanding Optical Gas Imaging Quantification
A relatively young technology, quantitative optical gas imaging (qOGI), is quickly proving itself to be a viable alternative to toxic vapor analyzers and Bacharach Hi Flow® Samplers as a tool for oil and natural gas industry operators to quantify gas leaks. This article describes qOGI, how it works, its applications, and the equipment necessary for its use. The article also details how qOGI compares to alternative leak quantification technologies.

Top 10 Questions: Gas Leak Quantification with OGI Cameras
This article examines common questions and concerns surrounding quantitative optical gas imaging (qOGI). More specifically, it answers 10 questions related to the use of FLIR’s QL320 platform, which pairs new technology – in the form of a ruggedized plug and play tablet -- with FLIR’s existing GF320, GFx320, and GF620 OGI cameras to quantify hydrocarbon gas leaks in units of mass leak rate, volumetric leak rate, or concentration over pathlength. This article’s subject matter builds on the previous piece in this series, which introduces qOGI systems, discussing their functionality and advantages over competing technologies.
