The on-board Neuro technology allows users to deploy trained neural networks directly on the camera, eliminating the need for a host system when carrying out tasks such as classification, object detection and localisation. These networks support on-camera decision-making and make “inference on the edge” possible.
The open-platform Neuro technology supports popular frameworks such as TensorFlow and Caffe.
Flir says that the camera – which costs £231 (ex VAT) in the UK – will allow original equipment manufacturers, engineers and manufacturers to solve challenging automation problems quickly. The small, low weight and low power consumption device can be embedded into mobile, desktop, and handheld systems.
