FLIR Boson+ 32mm Lens

High Performance, Uncooled, Longwave Infrared (LWIR) OEM Thermal Camera Module

Made in USA, the Boson+ sets a new industry standard for longwave infrared (LWIR) OEM thermal camera performance and size, weight, and power (SWaP). It features an industry-leading thermal sensitivity of less than or equal to (≤)20 mK and an upgraded automatic gain control (AGC) filter delivering dramatically enhanced scene contrast and sharpness in all environments. Improved video latency enhances tracking, seeker performance, and decision support. With an optimized 12 µm 640 x 512 focal plane array (FPA) and AGC, Boson+ is now even more the go-to thermal camera module for defense, industrial, and commercial integrators.

Boson+ maintains the widely deployed and real-world-proven Teledyne FLIR Boson mechanical, electrical, and optical interfaces allowing plug-and-play with existing designs. The easy-to-use Boson SDK, user-friendly GUI, and comprehensive product integration documentation further simplify OEM integrated into a new system designs. Enhanced LWIR thermal performance and industry-leading reliability provide low-risk development, making Boson+ the ideal dual use thermal camera module for integration into unmanned ground vehicles (UGV), unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), wearables, security applications, handhelds, and thermal sights.

FLIR Boson 320 - 4.3mm Lens

Compact LWIR Thermal Camera

The Boson longwave infrared (LWIR) thermal camera module sets a new standard for size, weight, power, and performance (SWaP). It utilizes FLIR infrared video processing architecture to enable advanced image processing and several industry-standard communication interfaces while keeping power consumption low. The 12 µm pitch Vanadium Oxide (VOx) uncooled detector comes in two resolutions – 640 x 512 or 320 x 256. It is available with multiple lens configurations, adding flexibility to integration programs.

With a weight as low as 7.5g and a camera body as small as 21 x 21 x 11 mm, the Boson represents an industry-leading reduction in SWaP with no reduction in performance. Advanced embedded processing and video analytics, as well as software-customizable functionality, give this small camera big capabilities, including integration with auxiliary sensors such as third-party cameras, GPS, and IMU.

FLIR Boson SX8 - 24mm Lens

1280 × 1024 Resolution, 8-micron, SWaP-Optimized LWIR Camera Module

Boson® SX8 is the world’s first high-volume production, ITAR-free and NDAA-compliant uncooled longwave infrared (LWIR) camera module to deliver SXGA (1280 × 1024) resolution with an 8-micron (µm) pixel-pitch microbolometer. Engineered to minimize size, weight, and power (SWaP), Boson SX8 improves situational awareness in a compact, integration-ready form factor. Purpose-built for industrial, commercial, and defense integrations, Boson SX8 delivers 4× more pixels than a 640 × 512 VGA module, extending detection, recognition, and identification (DRI) range and providing clear imagery at long distances.

Multiple lens options, including a factory integrated continuous zoom lens, support a wide range of platforms, from uncrewed systems and counter-UAS to seekers, perimeter security, visual augmentation, and handheld devices. With high-speed performance and SXGA output, Boson SX8 helps operators see more, see farther, and do more. Boson SX8 helps accelerate development and reduce integration risk with an available graphical user interface (GUI), germanium-free lens configurations, and compatibility with Teledyne FLIR OEM’s Prism™ intelligent digital products. Manufactured at scale in the USA, it offers lower supply-chain risk, high reliability, and world-class support from a trusted volume supplier—setting a new standard for SWaP-optimized thermal imaging.
