FLIR introduces FLIR ResearchIR

Software for R&D and Science professionals

FLIR Systems not only produces the best thermal imaging camera systems, FLIR also wants users of thermal imaging systems to work more efficiently and productively.

Therefore FLIR Systems introduces FLIR ResearchIR.

FLIR ResearchIR software is aimed at R&D and Science users of thermal imaging cameras with a cooled or uncooled detector. FLIR ResearchIR takes the most out of a thermal imaging camera and allows high speed recording and advanced thermal patterns analysis. ResearchIR is the perfect tool for industrial R&D. Users that are interested in more advanced science applications can choose for ResearchIR Max.

Key features FLIR ResearchIR

The most important features of FLIR ResearchIR are:

View, record and store images at high speed
Post-processing of fast thermal events
Generate time-temperature plots from live images or recorded sequences
Advanced Start/Stop recording conditions
Unlimited number of analysis functions (Spot, Line, Area)
File organizer with Quick Collection and preview of sequences
Zoom & Pan allows a closer look
Multiple user-configurable tabs for live images, recorded images or plot

Key features FLIR ResearchIR Max

FLIR ResearchIR Max contains all the features or FLIR ResearchIR. Furthermore it contains features for advanced thermal analysis, such as:

Pre/Post Triggering
Mathematical processing toolbox
Image filtering toolbox
Multiple camera support for parallel recording
Radiometric Digital Detail Enhancement (DDE) improves dramatically the understanding of the thermal scene, still keeping the radiometric measurement accuracy.

The perfect combination

FLIR ResearchIR in combination with a FLIR thermal imaging camera is the perfect solution for any R&D / Science application. It will allow researchers in all field to make the smallest of temperature differences visible and to thoroughly analyse thermal process in real-time.

About thermal imaging

Thermal imaging is the use of cameras constructed with specialty sensors that “see” thermal energy emitted from an object. Thermal, or infrared energy, is light that is not visible to the human eye because its wavelength is too long to be detected. It’s the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we perceive as heat. Infrared allows us to see what our eyes can not. Thermal imaging cameras produce images of invisible infrared or “heat” radiation. Based on temperature differences between objects, thermal imaging produces a clear image. It is an excellent tool for predictive maintenance, building inspections, research & development and automation applications. It can see in total darkness, in the darkest of nights, through light fog, in the far distance, through smoke. It is also used for security and surveillance, maritime, automotive, firefighting and many other applications.

About FLIR Systems

FLIR Systems is the world leader in the design and manufacturing of thermal imaging cameras for a wide variety of applications.
