Is that for the Android version? Since I ordered my iPhone version a month prior to yours I'm hoping they didn't ship you my camera by mistake!

Got an ad today from West Marine for an iPhone 5 or 5s FLIR attachment called FLIR ONE.

FLIR ONE™ Personal Thermal Imager—Space Gray | West Marine

Is this the same thing you guys ordered?

The FLIR ONE has resolution of 60 x 80 and a 2 hour battery for $350. That resolution seems rather poor.

No, that's...FLIR. This is something better, less expensive, that seems to have some launching issues.

Bligh

I take it yours is a droid version

Seems similar...even though the west description uses term "NIGHT VISION" which it appears not to be.

Just another small infrared camera.

Pretty sure it's not IR.
From the WM website:
" Sensor Resolution: Visible camera (used for FLIR MSX blending): VGA; FLIR Lepton thermal camera core: 60 x 80, 4,800 pixel "

Finding the right woman in the bar.

What would it be then?

FLIR is infra red.

Don't you just hate it when you have to wait to play with a new toy.

Standing by.

Would love to see some night photos when you have a chance. I wonder if this would be useful for navigation on dark nights. We picked up a digital IR night vision scope with an AV output that I've hooked into our chartplotter. It works well when I hold it up to the pilot house windows, but only at relatively close range.

I got my Seek cmaera about a week ago, order #3734, android. Been playing with it when I have a chance. One pic is my coffee cup, one is a Yanmar 4 cylinder at cruising rpm, and the other is a 12 volt relay that I found that's getting warm, notice the one wire that's warm also. It's going to be a really good tool to have in my bag, glad I got it.

If it's an IR camera it wouldn't matter if it was day or night because it's not imaging visible light. It's imaging heat differences.
