Thermal detection cameras
Boost your security and protect your site with discreet thermal imaging cameras that can see in challenging conditions.
Even the best CCTV cameras have their limitations. They’ll struggle when it’s foggy, when the air is filled with smoke or when there’s foliage in the way. Even at night, they need obvious extra lighting to be able to see clearly, which isn’t very discreet. That’s where thermal cameras come into their own.
Thermal imaging cameras help you subtly spot suspicious activity on your site, even in challenging conditions. They work by using thermal infrared (heat energy) to ‘see’ the environment, and can function on their own or alongside your existing CCTV system.
Why choose thermal imaging cameras?
Thermal imaging cameras have a number of advantages over conventional CCTV. They make it easier to detect both people and vehicle movements, even at impressive distances. They’re also less likely to result in false alarms compared to conventional cameras. What’s more:
- They can see at night without the need for extra lighting
- They can see clearly in difficult conditions – such as smoke, fog and even light foliage
- High detection ranges mean they can see people up to 1.5km away and vehicles up to 4km away
- They’re good at seeing people against backgrounds, and can even spot someone when they’re camouflaged
In short, thermal imaging cameras are less easy to fool than conventional cameras, making them particularly suited to transport facilities, high-security environments such as airports and defence settings, utilities and power generation sites, and secure sites such as research facilities.
Good to know: These versatile cameras can even be used for remote monitoring of industrial equipment.
