M324CS Thermal Camera System with Gyro-Stabilization and Color Camera
Gyro-stabilization plus 36-power optical zoom, color visible-light camera and joystick control unit.
FLIR’s M-324CS Thermal/Visible Stabilized Camera comes with standard gyro-stabilization and a powerful 336 x 256-pixel thermal imager for night or day detection and viewing of other vessels, navigation aids, hazards and more. It is also fitted with a high-resolution color low-light visible camera with powerful 36x optical zoom.
Next-gen optics: The M-324CS is equipped with latest generation optics and FLIR's new Tau 2 thermal core, giving it exceptional detail and sensitivity. It even features a new 2X continuous electronic zoom which allows you to enlarge distant objects for easier identification.
Visible-light color camera with 36-power optical zoom: M-324CS' second payload consists of a high-resolution color camera with low-light capability and a powerful 36x optical zoom. Use the color camera during the day, or into the night for stunning visuals of objects at short or long ranges. The visible light camera make identifying objects easy. It also enables you to easily read navigational signage, vessel names and other features not visible to the thermal camera.
Gyro-stabilized: Rough seas are no problem for the M-324CS because it features standard 2-axis gyro-stabilization. Even when fully zoomed in on a distant target with either camera, the image remains stable and immune to the effects of rough seas and vessel motion.
Joystick Control Unit: The M-324CS includes the FLIR JCU1 Joystick Control Unit. The joystick enables you to control the cameras pan, tilt and zoom and allows access to change color palettes, operating modes, and all the camera’s extended features and capabilities. The M-324CS can also be viewed and controlled directly from the thermal camera app on many leading multi-function displays from manufacturers like Raymarine, Furuno, Garmin and Simrad.
Dual outputs: M-324CS has a dual composite video outputs for easy viewing on most marine monitors, televisions or multi-function displays. Output #1 is locked to the thermal camera only, while output #2 is selectable between the thermal camera or color visible camera system. This provides added flexibility when connecting the system to your boat’s monitors or MFDs for viewing.
