FLIR M200, $3,495
Î
The FLIR M200 is a new pan-and-tilt marine thermal
night vision camera that allows observers to see into the
night at 320 by 240 pixel thermal resolution that has a
two-times digital zoom. Combining the M200 with a
Raymarine Axiom MFD with ClearCruise intelligent
thermal analytics will provide audible and visual alerts
when “non-water” objects such as boats, obstacles or
navigation markers are identifi ed in the scene. IP video
technology simplifi es installation by eliminating extra
video cables. A simple Ethernet connection allows the
M200 to network with multiple compatible MFDs.
