Long Range, High Performance

Range Science Cameras: FLIR RS8500 & RS6780

Long-range thermal imaging can be key to accurate data collection in harsh environments and open-air test range applications. Researchers on these projects need cameras that can characterize fast thermal transients on high-speed targets, offer enhanced sensitivity and spatial resolution, and have advanced triggering and synchronization features. The Teledyne FLIR Range Science (RS-Series) line of cameras deliver on all of these requirements and more to improve the quality of data while saving time and frustrations inherent in long range, dynamic data capture environments.
