Plug-and-play with Teledyne FLIR’s TAU® 2+. This solution is an advanced, high-performance thermal imaging OEM camera module made in the USA.
With real-world-tested Tau® 2 mechanical, electrical, and optical interfaces, the Tau® 2+ is a drop-in replacement, and with a 1.5x sensitivity improvement and an entirely redesigned image processing engine, it delivers to expectations on contrast and sharpness, even when operating in the most challenging environments.

Range features
A high level overview of what this range offers
- 
Object detection at greater distances - NEDT of less than 25mK (millikelvin), delivering significantly improved detection, recognition, and identification (DRI) performance
- Wide lens options and simple optical interface for integrator-designed optics – improved DRI can now be exploited over multiple Fields-of-View (FoV)
 
- 
Resolve key information with sharper images and improved contrast - Best-in-class image processing algorithm providing clearer thermal details in challenging environments
- A new level of minimum resolvable temperature differences (MRTD), improved scene contrast with blacker blacks and whiter whites, and a low image noise
