  • How Chip Design Systems Pushes FLIR Cameras Capabilities with their IR Projectors

    The future of validating and improving aerospace and autonomous vehicle design relies on hardware in the loop (HWIL or HIL) testing. This approach involves connecting a control module—for example, a missile guidance, navigation, and control—to software that generates a simulated environment that “tricks” the control module into acting as though it’s engaging with a real environment. This allows R&D teams to run hundreds or thousands of varying test scenarios without the costs, time, or potential risks associated with field testing. HWIL testing as it is applied to hypersonics research applications requires bleeding edge technology, and Chip Design Systems is leading improvements in the area of infrared scene projectors for these tests.

  • Beyond Your Average Investigation: FLIR T540 featured in History Channel’s Beyond Skinwalker Ranch

    The HISTORY® Channel’s latest series, “Beyond Skinwalker Ranch,” doesn’t speculate on what might be in an area and instead tasks its team with researching the lore, taking scientific readings, and reporting based on the data they get. While the truth to the stories is up for debate, the conditions of the remote areas they take place in are not. Despite the often-difficult filming locations, the show was able to easily capture data that could help separate fact from fiction using a FLIR T540 Professional Thermal Camera.

  • Insect Inspection Hidden Behavior of Bees Revealed by FLIR Thermal Imaging in New Research

    Since colony collapse disorder hit US hives in 2006, there has been much misinformation around the humble honeybee and its reportedly dwindling numbers around the world. But what do we really know about what goes on inside a beehive? Two UK researchers are on a mission to uncover the behaviour of the bees deep inside the hive, modernising outdated knowledge about one of nature’s best-loved pollinators.

  • Searching for Strays with a FLIR E8-XT

    The task of finding and rescuing stray dogs, cats, and other pets is a challenge many animal-loving volunteers are willing to take on every day. It can be tough to bring in skittish strays that find safety in hiding, but organizations such as Stray Rescue of Saint Louis, Missouri, recently discovered the benefit of using a FLIR thermal imaging camera to locate animals in need.
