“I finally got my hands on the FLIR One. Thanks to the excellent people at FLIR that sent me a review unit,” Rhett Allain writes for Wired. After playing with it for a couple of days, I am very impressed. VERY impressed.”
“The FLIR One is an infrared camera attachment for the iPhone (5 and 5s). It comes with a case so you can snap it on your phone,” Allain writes. “Once it’s on your phone, you can take awesome IR pictures… The FLIR One can also record video. Yes, I think that is pretty awesome even though it is only at 8.1 frames per second. Still, this is better than a still image in some cases.”
Much more and tons of images taken from the FLIR One in the full article here.

A cool product that’s going to be hot? or a hot product that’s going to be really cool?
I got to try this at Macworld in San Francisco this spring. It is an amazing product. It is especially amazing consider in that alternative IR cameras go for thousands of dollars.
A must-have for SAR teams worldwide; cheap for what it does, and works with a widely available device.
Great for finding heating and cooling leaks in your home. If your energy costs are high, this could help you find your trouble spots.
The implications for law enforcement and firefighters are obvious…This is a breakthrough on price and should make a huge difference.
Should be useful for screening for Ebola once that arrives.
Another toy for the big boys!
Don’t worry. You won’t be one.
Huh?
This will help a lot of construction people. The ones who own small businesses, job foramen, sales people, and inspectors. This will put a very expensive tool, one that only the “big boys” have now, in the hands of the midlevel people. It will improve work performance, and save a lot of money. In a few years it will be a must have tool to move up in industries like: roofing, ACHV, plumbing, and remodeling.
Just got mine last Thursday. Very useful. I found some issues already with my house and heat leakage. Checked my breaker panel, all okay there. The temp measurement cursor is supposed to be accurate to plus or minus 3 degrees Fahrenheit. I wants to re tune the image alot which is a manual pull on this device, but it only takes a second.
One complaint from folks is that they stick a FLIR logo on all your pics and video. Not cool. You can’t remove it.
All in all, I think it was worth the money.
Wow! Having a thermal imaging camera on your iPhone seems like a pretty cool thing to have. Especially that night, a thermal imaging camera on your iPhone would be helpful, if you think that unwanted guests have entered your house. Unfortunately, I don’t have an iPhone, so I bought a thermal imaging camera from Diamond Technical Surveys.
