High Definition Science-Grade Camera
FLIR X8580 MWIR Camera
The FLIR X8580 midwave IR camera is designed for scientists and engineers who need to capture detailed imagery of high-speed events, perform custom radiometric measurements, or detect points of failure in composites, solar cells, and electronics. This thermal imaging camera combines 1280 × 1024 HD resolution with fast frame rates and integration times, allowing researchers to record stop motion on fast-moving subjects or rapid temperature changes—whether in the lab or on the test range. The X8580 will provide higher quality recordings, save time, and mitigate frustration in dynamic acquisition environments with a four-position motorized filter wheel and support for FLIR motorized focus lenses.
Standout Performance, Game-changing Capabilities
On Camera RAM & SDD Recording
Record up to 34 seconds of full HD resolution data directly to on-camera memory, or up to 15 minutes to included 512 GB SSD.
Synchronizing & Triggering
Capture essential data easily and control image frame generation precisely with dedicated trigger input and new Tri-level Sync input.
Multiple Software Interfaces
Stream thermal data directly from the SSD over any of the digital data buses for advanced analysis with FLIR Research Studio software.
