Consumer electronics brand FLIR has announced the launch of its newest thermal imaging smartphone add-on, the 'FLIR One Edge Pro.' In many respects, the new product is quite similar to the brand's original heat-sensing iPhone product. However, this version does not require a physical connection to users' phones to work, and it is also compatible with both Androids and iPhones.
Essentially, the product allows users to upgrade their smartphone to include thermal image sensing. In addition, the 'FLIR One Edge Pro' boasts a highly self-contained design; instead of attaching to a phone or tablet's charging port, it fastens utilizing an adjustable spring-loaded clamping mechanism.
Interested consumers can purchase the new FLIR One Edge Pro online through the company's website.
