Workswell WIRIS Pro is designed as a fully universal thermal camera for unmanned aerial vehicles (drones/UAVs). This is a new generation of thermal cameras designed for the most demanding metrological applications, such as, but not limited to, industry, archaeology, or precision farming.


 

State-of-the-art camera for inspection activities
WIRIS Pro has been designed first and foremost as an inspection camera. Its thermal camera is equipped with a LWIR microbolometric sensor with 640×512 px resolution (in the 7.5 – 13.5 μm range) and the Super resolution mode functionality providing an option to have the final thermogram in the 1280 x 1024 px resolution. Further, the RGB camera comes with a Full HD (1920 x 1 080 px) resolution and, most importantly, it provides an absolutely unrivalled optic ultrazoom – as much as 10x (i.e. 6.9° to 58.2° field of view). The thermal camera has four temperature ranges (two premium), while the highest possible temperature that the thermal camera can measure is 1,500 °C.
 

Different recording options
A big amount of radiometric data can be taken in course of the inspection activities. Therefore, WIRIS Pro is equipped, as the only one among the cameras for drones, with an internal SSD disc with the capacity from 128 GB to 256 GB. Afterwards, the data can be stored on an external USB disc or a microSD card.

Rugged construction
Industrial inspections are often executed in demanding and dusty environments. As a result, there is a higher potential risk that the camera can be damaged. Therefore, WIRIS Pro is protected by a rugged case made of lightweight aluminium. In addition, its most sensitive part, i.e. the thermal camera lens, is protected by a replaceable protective cap made of germanium.

Precise metrology
We are aware that industrial applications can be very demanding when it comes to metrology and that at each stage. The separate calibration of each lens, including the final calibration certificate in particular . Each thermal camera is precisely and individually manufactured and calibrated.

WIRIS OS operating system
Thermal camera WIRIS Pro, as the other cameras of the WIRIS type, comes with a WIRIS OS operating system featuring many functionalities designed for security and search applications enabling maximum utilization of functionalities and properties of both incorporated cameras. This way, it is extending the camera’s metrological capabilities and offering a number of advanced measurement functions which you cannot see in any other product.

In practice, you will be surprised by the possibilities and ease of use that WIRIS OS offers. And all of this through the RC controller during the drone flight.

Possibility to develop own applications
Along with the camera, we provide an SDK tool enabling you to develop your own applications. SDK gives access to low-level functionalities and enables the application developer to fully maximise the potential of the WIRIS Pro camera hardware. SDK for the popular MATLAB development environment is also available.

The widest range of interconnection and connectivity
Workswell WIRIS Pro also brings an interface enabling the widest range of connections to the drone, the control unit, an external GPS sensor, etc. Wi-Fi low latency live video streaming for image streaming and transmission of control signals via Wi-Fi is also available.

The following HW communication and control ports and interfaces are provided:

- S.BUS
- CAN bus (DJI M600 and A3 controller compatible)
- Ethernet (RJ 45 with the RTPS streaming and control signals transmission option)
- MavLink
- Possibility of connection to external GPS
- External trigger
