Portable thermal imaging cameras for handheld use afloat and ashore

The FLIR HM-Series is a range of handheld shock-resistant thermal imaging cameras. FLIR HM-Series cameras produce a crisp image in the darkest of nights and bring the benefits of FLIR's market leading technology into the hands of boat skippers on craft as small as RIBs and small yachts. These are also excellent units for use on mobile harbour, marina, boatyard and rescue patrols.

Reliable gyro-stabilised night vision system for larger marine applications

FLIR's Voyager II is a powerful, multi-sensor, mid range gyro-stabilised thermal night vision system. It incorporates two thermal imaging cameras and one daylight/low light camera. One thermal imager has a wide angle field of view, the other has a narrower field. The Voyager II overlays both to provide a high resolution image without losing broad situational awareness.

The FLIR Voyager II will allow you to detect a human being more than two kilometres away. Floating objects around 2.3 metres square in size can be spotted up to around six kilometres range, even in total darkness, through smoke, light fog and in the most difficult weather conditions.

The Voyager II comes with a fully integrated and gyro-stabilized Pan/Tilt. It provides you with a continuous 360° rotation and a steady image in any sea state.

The Navigator II is an economic, fixed mounted thermal imager.

The FLIR Navigator II provides crisp, clear thermal imagery in total darkness, light fog, and smoke.

It features the same thermal imaging technology found in many of FLIR's most sophisticated marine systems, but is packaged for users who have navigation as their primary application.

Unlike other night vision systems that require low amounts of light to generate an image, the Navigator II needs no light at all in order to work effectively.

The user can choose between two different versions of the Navigator II, fixed mounted or pan-and-tilt.

FLIR thermal imaging cameras work by detecting extremely small temperature differences. These temperature differences can be converted into a real-time video image on which the anything on the water, or floating in it, can be seen. Warmer objects appear white, colder objects are darker.

Other types of night vision technology require at least a low level of light to generate an image. The lower the light level, the less efficient their operation. FLIR thermal imaging cameras are completely unaffected by the darkest of nights when the moon has waned or when heavy weather obscures the sky and environmental light.

As you can see in this video FLIR brings together thermal imaging with other technologies to provide maximum confidence in uncertain situations.
