Designed specifically for the police and security teams Irisys (InfraRed Integrated Systems Ltd.) has announced the launch of the IRI 4011 and IRI 4041 Handheld Thermal Imagers.

The imagers provide thermal imaging performance and feature a 160x120 pixel silicon microbolometer sensor that means the imagers can deliver clear images in total darkness, detecting people at over 150m for the 4011 model and 300m from the 4041.

The devices have many potential uses for police forces. For example, for the detection of cannabis factories a calibrated temperature display can be selected providing remote monitoring of roof, window and vent temperatures and two cursors allow clear comparison of temperatures between adjacent buildings.

The imagers also come with an eye-shade that can be used for discrete viewing for covert operations and images can be easily stored using the standard removable SD memory and an integral rechargeable battery provides six hours continuous operation card.
