      Thermal Camera Module for RealWear Navigator™ 500 series devices

      SKU 127127

      The Thermal Camera Module is an accessory module for the RealWear Navigator 500 Series that provides a user with real-time infrared imagery (heat signature) of the surrounding environment. The Thermal Camera Module replaces the existing visible camera of the RealWear Navigator 500 Series and connects via the camera port, without any configuration changes or cable.

       

      The Thermal Camera Module includes the same 48MP visible sensor found in the standard camera module as well as a thermal sensor. The module is capable of real-time, hands-free viewing of the thermal information of industrial systems and equipment as well as excellent visual camera performance.
