New from FLIR Systems is the FLIR TCX Thermal Mini Bullet camera (pictured is the ceiling mount version). The makers say it combines 24/7 thermal video and built-in video motion detection. FLIR TCX is powered by the company’s Lepton camera core.
FLIR say that their TCX outperforms visible-light cameras by providing the advantage of seeing clearly in darkness without any illumination, in bright sunlight, through smoke, dust or even light fog – reducing false alarms. The makers say that their product is suitable for indoors and out – even in temperatures as cold as minus 40 degrees C – and for public buildings, factories, large and small businesses, or residential areas. Featuring intrusion detection and accurate video alarm verification in one device, TCX supports lighting control, people counting, retail traffic flow, and queue management, and enables other applications, including:
•Intrusion/presence detection: vehicles, people, animals
•Video alarm verification
•Night vision – 24/7 CCTV
•Residential security
•Short-range perimeter security
•Safety and fire assessment
John Distelzweig, Vice President and General Manager of FLIR Security, said: “Whether you’re a small business looking for intrusion detection and video alarm verification, a retail company looking for a solution to monitor customer traffic flow, or a small business trying to prevent break-ins, the TCX Mini Bullet is an extremely accurate solution.”
The TCX Thermal Mini Bullet is now available in EMEA, and will be available in APAC early July; visit www.flir.com/security.
