International. FLIR Systems announced FLIR A400 / A700 Thermal Smart Sensor and Thermal Image Streaming fixed camera solutions for monitoring equipment, production lines, critical infrastructure and elevated skin temperature detection.
These highly configurable smart camera systems provide precise non-contact temperature control across a wide range of disciplines: manufacturing process control, product development, emissions monitoring, waste management, facility maintenance, and environmental, health and safety (EHS) improvements. The FLIR A400/A700 smart thermal sensor solution will initially take precedence for covid-19 responders. For all applications, the series offers multiple image transmission, edge computing, and Wi-Fi connectivity to help accelerate data flow and enable faster decisions, improving productivity and security for professionals.
FLIR designed the A400/A700 cameras with two configurations to better meet the specific needs of the application. The intelligent thermal sensor configuration, recommended for measuring elevated skin temperatures, incorporates advanced measurement tools and alarms with edge computation to enable faster critical decisions. The Image Streaming configuration provides multiple thermal transmission capabilities to help optimize process control, improve quality assurance, or identify potential failures that could close a production line.
Users design their systems by choosing Smart Sensor or Imaging Streaming settings, selecting the A400 or A700 camera body based on the resolutions they need, and then adding lenses and a range of optional features to suit their application.
In addition, FLIR is currently in beta testing for an automated elevated skin temperature detection software solution that is fully integrated with its U.S. Food and Drug Administration certified thermal cameras. The solution is designed to rapidly increase the accuracy, ease of use and speed of existing detection procedures. FLIR will share an announcement about its solution in the second quarter of 2020.
