We have announced to create a thermal imaging camera for its Inspire 1 and Matrice 100 drones. The thermal imaging camera should be a boon for tasks like spotting fires, search and rescue and measuring the thermal efficiency of homes.
The drone company is already by far the most popular for cinematographers and hobbyists, but we have lately been targeting industrial operations, having recently launched a pesticide-spraying model. The thermal imaging camera could also help farmers monitor crop growth, and would be useful for folks like police, firefighters and building inspectors.
We showed how firefighters who beta-tested the unit were able to see where a fire started, how it’s spreading and whether the roof is likely to be stable. There are two models available with 640 x 512 and 336 x 256 resolutions, both of which can be controlled by the app.
