FLIR and Night Vision Australia continue Australian expansion with launch of New Thermal Monoculars for Law Enforcement

Editor’s Product Review
FLIR SCOUT II Night Vision Viewer

“These units are designed for simple, single hand use in rugged conditions. But instead we put it on a tri-pod and headed down the local foreshore after dark – the LS-Series thermal imagers see heat, instead of light, allowing observations in total darkness and avoid using flashlights that could reveal location.
The LS-Series cameras feature multiple imaging modes that can detect the body heat of a human or animals, with fully-automatic operation, they have multiple operating modes, including FLIR’s InstAlert™, which turns hot objects bright red on screen, allowing  the ability to quickly see hiding or hard to see subjects quickly. These units are suitable (and recommended) for law enforcement and surveillance investigators through to environmental enthusiasts.

FLIR Systems, manufacturer of thermal cameras, have now added the FLIR LS-X and LS-XR handheld thermal cameras to their range. These units are built for the demanding missions of the modern law enforcement officer.

Night Vision Australia General Manager, John Overs, said “These are the newest and most advanced cameras in the field. The LS-X and LS-XR feature enhanced high resolution color displays, extended range performance and video output for recording and external displays”. Mr Overs went on to say “The LS-X has a 320 x 240 sensor and up to 4X e-zoom, while the LS-XR has a 640 x 480 sensor with up to 8X e-zoom for superior vision”.

Both units are designed for simple, single hand use in rugged conditions. The LS-Series thermal imagers see heat, instead of light, allowing law enforcement professionals to search in total darkness and avoid using flashlights that could reveal their location.
