Teledyne FLIR, part of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, has announced the launch of the new FLIR Edge Pro, a wireless thermal-visible camera for mobile devices.
Unlike previous models, the reimagined FLIR Edge Pro does not need to be physically connected to your mobile device or have separate gadgets for specific operating systems, providing maximum flexibility for thermal inspections.
"The FLIR Edge Pro is the most versatile and advanced mobile thermal imaging camera to date thanks to its detachable form factor, designed to fit comfortably in the hand. It offers significantly greater flexibility by eliminating the need for specific connection ports or operating systems," said Chris Bainter, vice president of marketing and business development for Teledyne FLIR.
"In addition to the new hardware design, Teledyne FLIR is providing more software tools to empower new and untrained users to perform thermography inspections, process images and create reports. Common uses range from building inspection and automotive repair to industrial maintenance applications."
FLIR Edge Pro, flexible yet rugged design
The "RESNET" compliant and IP54-rated FLIR Edge Pro features a spring-loaded clip designed to allow operators to attach the camera to many types of cell phones and tablets. Thanks to the combined Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection, users can operate the Edge Pro up to 30 meters away from their mobile device, providing the flexibility needed to effectively inspect hard-to-reach locations or those scenarios that require greater distances to maintain operator safety.
Offering efficient image quality and processing for results, the FLIR Edge Pro features a 160×120 radiometric resolution Lepton® thermal imaging camera paired with a visible camera. Together with VividIRÔ, which combines multiple image frames to provide a sharper final image, the cameras are linked via MSX®. The patented MSX image enhancement feature superimposes edge detail from the visible camera onto the thermal image without sacrificing any thermal data within the image, providing greater context and clarity for improved decision support.
The FLIR Edge Pro also features extended battery life compared to previous generations of the FLIR ONE and FLIR EDGE and an easily recognizable battery life indicator, making it ideal for longer inspection situations such as disaster restoration, home inspection, energy auditing, and industrial equipment diagnostics.
More imaging and reporting with FLIR ONE Edge Pro
For cloud storage, image processing and reporting, the FLIR Edge Pro benefits from a comprehensive suite of Teledyne FLIR software including Tools Mobile, Ignite cloud and FLIR Thermal Studio desktop software. This allows users to easily share Edge thermal photos with customers and seamlessly integrate them into professional reports.
In addition, application developers have access to the FLIR ONE Software Development Kit (SDK) to create custom applications for exclusive use with the FLIR Edge Pro.
