  • FLIR Thermal Imaging Enables Autonomous Inspections of Mining and Trucking Vehicles in Australia

    Pitcrew AI is a new system leveraging FLIR thermal imaging and AI technology to change the way trucking and mining vehicles are inspected. Using an AI algorithm trained on a library of thermal images, the system can spot problems in their early stages, before equipment is destroyed or vehicles cause deadly accidents on the road.

  • How Do Thermal Cameras Work?

    A thermal camera is a non-contact device that detects infrared energy (heat) and converts it into a visual image. Let’s dive into the science of thermal cameras and the invisible world of heat they allow us to see.  

  • FLIR Captures $23.5M in Additional Orders for its Centaur Unmanned Ground Vehicles for US Army and Navy

    Navy is Latest to Join Army Robotics Program, Along with US Air Force and Marine Corps; New Awards Bring Total Recent Orders to Nearly 500 Mid-Sized Robots from US Armed Services

  • FLIR Touch-Free Sensors Help Pedestrians Stay Safe at Crossings and Decrease the Spread of Infection

    The current pandemic has highlighted the need for touch-free pedestrian sensors so we can stop using physical push-buttons. One such sensor is the FLIR TrafiOne. The TrafiOne uses thermal imaging to detect pedestrians and cyclists based on their temperature signatures, meaning it doesn’t need any natural or artificial light to function, and can provide uninterrupted, 24-hour detection of pedestrians and bicyclists.

  • Understanding Distance:Size Ratio

    To determine how far away you can measure, you need to know the spot size ratio (SSR) of your camera. Also known as the Distance:Size ratio (D:S ratio), this ratio tells you how far you can be (Distance) from a target of a given size (Size) and still get an accurate temperature measurement.

  • How Far Can You Measure with a Thermal Camera?

    A common question thermographers ask is “What’s the farthest target I can measure with my thermal camera?” The answer to this question is complicated, but essentially the distance you can measure depends on your camera’s resolution and field of view (FOV). A camera with a higher resolution will get you more pixels on the target you’re trying to measure, improving accuracy even from a distance. A narrow field of view—something like 6°—will magnify distant objects, again putting more pixels on distant targets.

  • FLIR Launches C5 Compact Thermal Camera with Cloud Connectivity
