Night Vision FLIR Personal Thermal Imager for I-Phone 5
- Thread starter SkyPup
- Start date
The strength that I see that Personal Vision Systems brings to FLIR is the IT engineering (read that as 'SDK').

Just ran across this, is this the new scope for shot show?
Looks like it is $3599 but no specs- Just a fake?

Ran across this looking for the new weapon scope. Is it real? it's $3599.....

Price target around $350 huh?

Here is an excellent review of how it works:

FLIR also has more expensive prototype iPhone thermal cases which make use of the larger (more expensive) Quark camera core, a tiny 0.75” cube with great resolution and low power requirements.
The FLIR Quark core is available in resolutions of 320 x 240 and 640 x 480, with a sensitivity of 0.05 ºC or 50 mK. The Quark can be configured with a wide variety of lenses, including 6.3mm, 9mm, 13mm, 14mm, 17mm, 19mm, 25mm, and a 35mm telephoto lens. Frame rates vary from a full 60 Hz down to an export ready 7.5 Hz.
The more expensive prototype iPhone infrared camera attachment has been exhibited with both a 9mm and a 13mm lens.
With the 9mm lens and 640 x 480 Quark core resolution, the prototype is able to detect a person at over 800 ft (250m).
But with the available 35mm lens, the sled has the potential to see a person at over 3000 ft (940m), or a warm vehicle at over a mile and a half away. The FLIR iPhone sled concept operates on a lower frame rate of 9 Hz to save power.

Seems there's a video of it from CES CES 2014: Smartphones get Predator thermal vision - YouTube

So what's the official words on detection range for people out in the open field?
They told me 100y....
But I have yet to see an actual screenshot or video of such taken

You know, here I am reading this thread trying to learn about something that is totally foreign to me and in the middle of all of the technical jargon I read this..... I love this site!
Surgeon, don't you have an IPhone and need a thermal at this particular time? LOL
Did I say that I love my job?

Wow, now that is impressive coming from a phone. You sir by far have some of the best looking thermal images with your home built cameras that I've seen anywhere. I bet the price if you sold them would be equally impressive.
So when I drop my Android phone and it breaks, and the phone model is no longer available (with the frantic pace of new smartphone development, this is bound to happen), is the Thermal Imager adaptable to another model of phone with a simple frame change, or does it become an expensive paperweight?
I know, I'm such a killjoy, drives my wife crazy.
I also created a great run on sentence, eh?

I just spit my f'ng Guinness all over the place. Thank you for that! Made my night.
As a matter of fact I do! Haha
This is one of those things that's gonna get me.... It's pretty much worthless for me and I don't need it at all. BUT! Ill own it! Lol
Slapchop, thank you for your good words. The state of the LWIR technology is accelerating rapidly on reduced size and modularity, both of which are key attributes for lower price and portability in multi-sensor IR imaging. There's a dual-band imager that I have worked out on a Samsung (with 3D presentation) that would knock your socks off, but because we are developing it for a government project, I cannot show it publicly.
The imaging on the iPhone and iPad shown is LWIR only, but showcases how a thermal core actually collects much more data than your eyes can discriminate - and with the right image processing technology, it is possible to present levels of detail that extend well into what's useful for identification, which has typically been a weakness of thermal imaging compared to i^2 night vision. But, as you can see, the gap is rapidly closing!
