FLASHSIGHT FLASHSIGHT FLIR’s compact, affordable FlashSight is a lightweight, hand held thermal imaging scope that allows officers to see in total darkness, through fog, smoke, and most obscurants. FlashSight makes officers more effective at nighttime pursuit and surveillance, while enabling them to see things like drugs and guns that suspects may throw away. Officer safety is the #1 priority. FlashSight helps officers stay safe by seeing the suspect’s body heat. When an officer searches for a suspect with a flashlight or searchlight, the suspect knows where you are and where you are looking. This can make it easier for the suspect to escape; it can even make you a target. With FlashSight, officers can see the suspect they’re looking for before the suspect can see them, increasing officer safety. FLIR’s FlashSight uses the same technology that airborne law enforcement crews use to support you overhead. With FlashSight you can quickly identify recently parked cars, and find objects discarded at a crime scene. It provides “instant-on” imaging capability, and only needs 4 commercially available AA batteries to operate; it will run 7 hours with Lithium cell batteries.
What is IR? Thermal imagers make pictures from heat, not light; detecting and displaying the minute differences in heat energy that are around us all the time. Day and night, in good weather and bad, everything gives off thermal energy. What’s more, the hotter something is the more thermal energy it gives off. FLIR imagers use this energy to make pictures that look like black and white TV video. Because everything generates heat, thermal cameras can see as well at night as they can during the day. What’s more, thermal energy passes through many obscurants including smoke, dust, and light fog better than visible light. Visible light detectors (like our eyes) are not very useful at night or in poor weather without the help of lights. FlashSight, PatrolIR Pro, and PathFindIR LE don’t have this problem. Why FLIR? FLIR, the largest commercial infrared company in the world, provides military-hardened products at commercial prices. We control the design, production, quality and supply of all components vital to our thermal imaging systems: detectors, coolers, optics and lasers. No one else can say that. FLIR designs and manufactures all of these critical components here in the USA. This ensures fast service support, and keeps unplanned component obsolescence – or problems with suppliers – from leaving you high and dry. FLIR is the risk-free solution. UNDERSTANDING FLIR
