By GlobalDataThe FLIR RS8500 MWIR’s detector is used to provide a high-definition, large-format thermal image.
It delivers data up to 180 frames per second and offers greater situational awareness.
To avoid hot targets from looking saturated, the camera uses neutral density filters on images.
Furthermore, the upgraded RS8500 model provides 24% more pixels at a 46% faster frame speed than the previous RS8000 models.
Currently, the FLIR RS8500 camera is available worldwide.
