FLIR have just released FLIR Viewer, an app that uses a thermal imaging camera's built-in Wi-Fi capability to enable it to easily connect it to an iPad, iPod Touch, or iPhone. Once connected a FLIR thermal imaging camera can send images and other data to an Apple mobile device wirelessly.

The free version of FLIR Viewer is now available to download from the Apple iTunes Store.

FLIR Viewer lets users download images from their camera, change colour palettes, analyse the images, add data, create reports, upload to "the cloud" and e-mail thermal images to other colleagues instantly.  There are a series of sample images that can be downloaded to the application so that any user can experience the functionality of the application for free, even without a camera.

Pioneers in all aspects of infrared technology, FLIR designs, manufactures, and supports thermal imaging systems and subsystems for industrial, scientific, governmental, commercial, and firefighting applications. With a 40-year history of infrared innovation, over 100,000 systems in use worldwide, and development centres and sales offices in over 60 countries, FLIR is the world leader in thermal imaging technology.
