Affordable thermal security camera dramatically reduces false alarms
WILSONVILLE, OR - April 14, 2015 – FLIR Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLIR) has announced the availability of the new FLIR TCX thermal mini bullet camera, a security camera combining 24/7 high-contrast thermal video and high-performance built-in video motion detection with a level of affordability that the industry has never seen. Powered by FLIR’s revolutionary Lepton camera core, the TCX will be showcased at the ISC West Show in Las Vegas, NV from April 15-17.

 FLIR TCX outperforms visible-light security cameras by providing the advantage of seeing clearly in complete darkness without any illumination, in bright sunlight, through smoke, dust or even light fog – enhancing accuracy and dramatically reducing false alarms. Flexible for integration in any environment, indoors and out – even in temperatures as cold as -40°C –  FLIR TCX is ideal for ensuring safety of public buildings, industrial facilities, large and small businesses, or residential areas. Featuring both intrusion detection and accurate video alarm verification in one device, FLIR TCX supports lighting control, people counting, retail traffic flow, and queue management, and enables a whole range of other applications including:

 Intrusion/presence detection: vehicles, people, animals

  • Video alarm verification
  • Night vision – 24/7 CCTV
  • Residential security
  • Short-range perimeter security
  • Safety and fire assessment

 “Whether you’re a small business looking for intrusion detection and video alarm verification, a retail company looking for a solution to monitor customer traffic flow, or a small business trying to prevent break-ins, the TCX Mini Bullet is an extremely accurate solution,” said John Distelzweig, Vice President and General Manager of FLIR Security. “As a leader in thermal security, FLIR is advancing the technology in such a way that makes thermal cameras accessible for anyone.”
