New Imager Spies Marijuana
NORTHAMPTON, England, May 19, 2008 –
Irisys, developer and manufacturer of intelligent infrared detectors, has introduced the new IRI 4011 and IRI 4041 Handheld Thermal Imagers that are specifically designed to aid police and security teams looking for illegal, indoor marijuana factories.
According to Irisys, the new IRI imagers are compact and easy to use and can directly improve the detection of illegal factories by way of a calibrated temperature display that provides remote monitoring of roof, window and vent temperatures.
Two cursors allow a clear comparison of temperatures between adjacent buildings. Featuring a 160x120 pixel silicon microbolometer sensor, the imagers also deliver clear images in total darkness, detecting people at over 150m for the 4011 model and 300m from the 4041 model.

The 4011 features a large clear 3½ inch display, with menus for camera control specifically optimized for police requirements. Its eyeshade provides discrete viewing for covert operations and images can be easily stored using the standard removable SD memory card. A hot spot tracker aids automatic detection of a person in the view while the freeze frame feature helps in searching restricted access areas. Selectable color pallets include color and "white hot" and "black hot" display and a hot spot tracker aids automatic detection of a person in the view.
The Irisys 4000 series PC software allows stored images to be uploaded to a computer and exported as standard bitmap pictures to office applications for incident reports. The 4011 has a rechargeable batter and a carry case that includes mains and car chargers, eyeshade and the PC Software with SD Card reader.
