FLIR Boson SX8

The Teledyne FLIR Boson SX8 is the first NDAA-compliant, volume-production uncooled LWIR thermal camera module to combine SXGA (1280 × 1024) resolution with an 8-micron pixel pitch. It delivers four times the resolution of standard VGA modules in a compact, low-SWaP package (31.6 x 31.6 x 19.9 mm, 22.5 g without lens), giving your platform greater situational awareness and longer effective range. US-made and ITAR-free. Featuring Silent Shutterless NUC (SSN) for uninterrupted imaging with no shutter pauses, a 60 Hz frame rate, and under 2.25 W power draw, the SX8 is built for UAS, counter-UAS, perimeter security, robotics, handheld devices, and ISR platforms. Available in two sensitivity grades (Industrial ≤35 mK and Professional ≤45 mK) and three lens options (12mm, 18mm, and 24mm). Use the selector to choose the configuration that fits your application. Shorter focal lengths give a wider field of view for close-in awareness, while the 24mm extends detection and recognition range.
