Powerful Temperature Analysis

ThermaCAM Researcher offers powerful built-in measurement and analysis functions for fast and extensive temperature analysis including isotherms and spot measurements, line profiles, area histograms, image subtraction capability and many more. All measurement tools allow independent emissivity and distance settings. A fexible screen lay-out, automatic adjustments for best image possible, user-defined recording conditions, sequence editing, customisable measurement tool graphics, comprehensive result tables and OLE technology provide unparalleled flexibility and power in a compact and portable package.

ThermaCAM™ Researcher™ supports three hardware configurations: a FireWire interface, a PC-card camera interface and a parallel camera interface. Which interface to use depends on the model of your infrared camera and your specific requirements.

If you are working with one of our newest ThermaCAM S65 or ThermaCAM S45 cameras, you will benefit of the FireWire interface. It allows for super fast image and data transfer of real-time, fully radiometric 14-bit JPEG images.

If you are working with a FLIR Systems ThermaCAM SC you can choose between the following options:

A PC card interfaceallows capturing images at the rate of 5 - 7 Hz.

Coupled with a parallel interface, ThermaCAM Researcher High Speed provides digital video and data acquisition up to 50 -750 Hz, depending on your camera type.

Fully radiometric digital IR-video can be recorded to a hard disk for later play back. Many setting alternatives to start/ stop a recording are available: start/stop at a certain time, at a trig signal or manually by pressing a button. Recording speed can be set to real-time (50 - 900 Hz), to a selectable time or image interval (every 1, 2, 3, ... images) or to store every time there is an external trig signal.
