New Seek Thermal Camera Makes
It Easy to Focus In On Your Target
Seek Thermal has just announced the
Seek XR, an extended range version of its
award-winning thermal camera. Created
with outdoor enthusiasts in mind, the
Seek XR allows people to literally see
heat, making it possible to spot people
and animals in total darkness. For hunters,
the Seek XR can be used in daylight,
the dark, or in obscured visibility conditions.
It’s useful for scouting, bloodtrailing,
hunting game, and much more.
The new Seek XR has a manual focus
lens for viewing objects at close range,
or at distances of up to 2,000 feet. Until
recently, the price of thermal imaging has
kept it out of reach for almost everybody
except military and law enforcement. The
Seek XR will be available in January for
both iOS and Android devices for $299
at www.thermal.com Thermal imaging
converts heat energy into an image that
can be seen with the human eye. Traditionally,
thermal cameras costing several
thousand dollars and up have been used
by firefighters, law enforcement and
the military to see through smoke or in
complete darkness. Seek Thermal has
pioneered the next generation of thermal
imaging technology sized and priced for
the everyday consumer. The Seek camera
is a small device that plugs into the
micro USB connector on Android devices
and the LightningTM connector on iOS
devices. A durable magnesium housing
protects a next-generation thermal sensor
and custom chalcogenide lens. It weighs
only 0.5 ounces and creates true thermal
images with a resolution of 206x156, or
over 32,000 thermal pixels. Prior to today
this kind of resolution was only available
in cameras costing several thousand
dollars and up. The Seek camera works
with a free app that is available in the
Apple App store and on Google Play. The
app makes it easy for people to get started
with thermal imaging, while also including
a range of controls substantial enough
for people who use the camera for serious
work or serious fun. App features include;
capture and share thermal photos and
videos, select from different temperature
measurement modes including the ability
to automatically highlight everything in
the scene that is above or below a specified
temperature and select from nine
different color palettes. Technically called
“LUTs,” there are different color ranges
that can be applied to temperature measurements.
You can also swipe seamlessly
back and forth between a regular and a
thermal image in Thermal+ mode. For
