FLIR ONE Edge Pro wireless thermal-visible camera

Teledyne FLIR has released the FLIR ONE Edge Pro, a wireless thermal-visible camera for mobile devices. Unlike previous models, the camera doesn’t need to be physically connected to its companion mobile device nor does it have separate models for specific operating systems, providing flexibility for thermal inspections.

The IP54-rated product has a spring-loaded clip to allow operators to attach the camera to many types of mobile phones and tablets. With a combined Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection, users can operate the camera up to 30 m away from their mobile device, providing the flexibility to effectively inspect hard-to-reach places or for those scenarios requiring greater standoff distances to maintain operator safety.

The product features a 160x120 resolution radiometric Lepton thermal imaging camera paired with a visible camera. Along with VividIR, which combines multiple image frames to deliver one sharper, final image, the cameras are brought together via MSX. The MSX image enhancement feature overlays the edge detail of the visible camera onto the thermal image without sacrificing any thermal data within the image, providing greater context and clarity to improve decision support.

The product also features an extended battery life compared to previous generations of the FLIR ONE and an easily-recognised battery life indicator, making it suitable for more prolonged inspection situations including disaster restoration, home inspection, energy auditing and industrial equipment diagnostics.
