MSX
The Duo Pro R
camera utilizes FLIR’s
patented
Multi Spectral Dynamic Imaging (MSX) technology
found in
FLIR’s
Duo and FLIR One products. It provides extraordinary detail in real-time thermal
images by embossing visible camera image information onto thermal video and stills. MSX produces
exceptional thermal clarity and ensures easier target identification without compromising
radiometric data. The UAS App provides the user with control over the strength of the MSX overlay,
as well as horizontal and vertical alignment of the two streams.
Please note that the MSX feature is only available at a digital zoom setting of 100% for the 336
camera configurations, and 100% and 200% zoom for the 640 camera configurations.

FFC
To maintain optimum performance, thermal imaging cameras occasionally must perform an
internal calibration, or Flat Field Correction (FFC). This is accomplished using an internal shutter
and takes less than 1 second. A warning is provided onscreen 1-2 seconds prior to this event and
can be seen in the upper right-hand corner of the live image. During re-
calibration, an audible “click”
can be heard and live video is momentarily frozen. This function takes place automatically, based
on internal camera parameters, and can also be manually initiated by the user through one of the
available interfaces.
A user may find recalibrating prior to taking critical measurements will ensure best performance.

Zoom
Duo Pro R cameras have up to 4x digital zoom (slider setting of 400%) on the IR output, with
associated on-screen symbology. For example, a Duo Pro R 336 in NTSC uses the center 320 x 240
pixels of the sensor for analog video. 2x (slider setting of 200%) zoom mode will interpolate the
