Discover the advantages of using thermal imaging cameras in your ecological surveys
Automated Emergence Detection
Each spike in the graph relates to a bat presence in the selected ‘Rectangle 1’ and each image was taken from the corresponding spike. We can see the first spike was an emergence, whereas the others were bats entering the area. The user can select as many areas as they like and perform the same analysis on each area.
Simple Setup
Enjoy a wired or wireless connection with any Windows or Mac device, avoid cabling issues with the integrated power supply, and benefit from a multi-use tripod setup for convenient portability.
Automated Emergence Detection
Greatly reduce post-survey analysis time by monitoring areas of likely emergence and skipping to any thermal event.
Never miss a thing
Record up to 30fps for 6 hours on a single charge. Choose from long-range 6-degree lenses or ultra-wide 80-degree FOV lenses to ensure you never miss an event.
