FLIR Systems has announced the introduction of FLIR ResearchIR Software to enable R&D and Science professionals using thermal imaging systems to work more efficiently and productively.

Drawing upon FLIR's extensive experience of thermal imaging cameras and applications - ResearchIR enables users to get the most out of their thermal imaging camera providing facility for high speed recording and advanced thermal pattern analysis. ResearchIR is the perfect tool for industrial R&D.

Designed for efficiency and productivity - FLIR ResearchIR offers a wealth of easy-to-use features. These include viewing, recording and storage of images at high speed, post-processing of fast thermal events and generation of time-temperature plots from live images or recorded sequences. In addition the software includes facility to set-up advanced start/stop recording conditions, analyze data with an unlimited number of analysis functions, rapidly organize files, take a closer look at images with zoom and pan controls and set-up multiple user-configurable tabs for live images, recorded images or plotting.

For more advanced thermal analysis - FLIR has introduced FLIR ResearchIR Max. FLIR ResearchIR Max contains all the features or FLIR ResearchIR plus facilities for pre/post triggering, tools for mathematical processing and image filtering as well as radiometric Digital Detail Enhancement (DDE) and support for parallel recording using multiple cameras.

In combination with a FLIR thermal imaging camera - FLIR ResearchIR software provides the perfect solution for any R&D / Science application. It will allow researchers in all fields to make the smallest of temperature differences visible and to thoroughly analyze thermal process in real-time.
