Even the friction from a person’s finger, and the heat from a hand on a wall leaves enough thermal energy behind to show up clearly to the First Mate. Everything generates thermal energy, even ice And even though thermal energy is invisible to the naked eye, First Mate thermal night vision cameras can detect it and turn it into a video image that is easy to understand, allowing you to see what your eyes never could.Using the same technology as FLIR’s best-in-class Navigator II, Voyager II, and M-Series thermal night vision systems, First Mate gives boaters the information they need to see at night and stay safe. Available for less than $3,000, First Mate is affordable enough for every mariner.System HM-224 HM-224 Pro HM-324 XP HM-324 XP+ HM-307 XP HM-307 XP+ Sensor Type 240 × 180 VOx Microbolometer 320 x 240 VOx MicrobolometerFOV 24° × 18° NTSC 7° × 5° NTSCStart up from stand-by < 1.5 secondsFocal Length 19 mm 65 mmThermal Sensitivity <50 mK @ f/1.0Image Processing FLIR Proprietary Digital Detail EnhancementUser Interface Power Button On/Off/StandbyPicture Button Freeze Frame Still image capture to SD cardFreeze Frame Still image capture and video capture to SD cardFreeze Frame Still image capture and video capture to SD cardZoom Button Non-Operable 2x E-zoomBlack Hot/White Hot BH/WHBrightness BrightnessImage Presentation Built-In Display LCD DisplayVideo Output NTSC or PAL composite video; RCA jackImage Polarity White Hot/Black Hot; SelectableOn-Screen Symbology StandardOther SD Card Stores still images Stores still images and videoUpgradeability Upgrade to HM-224 Pro via software update through SD card slot N/A Upgrade to HM-324XP+ via software update through SD card slotN/A Upgrade to HM-307XP+ via software update through SD card slotN/APower Battery Type 4 AA Batteries; NiMH, Li-Ion, or AlkalineBattery Life (Operating) >5 Hours On NiMH batteriesBattery Life (Stand-By) 120 hours on NiMH batteriesEnvironmental Water Ingress IP-67, Submersible (Floats)Operating Temp. 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C) -4°F to 140°F (-20°C to 60°C)Storage Temp. -4°F to 158°F (-20°C to 70°C) -40°F to 167°F (-40°C to 75°C)Drop 1 m dropPhysical Weight (incl. lens) 1.45 lb (653 g) with batteries 2.2 lb (984 g) with batteriesSize (L × W × H) 9.36” × 3.33” × 2.62” (238 x 84.5 x 66.5 mm) 10.96” × 3.33” × 2.69” (278.4 x 84.5 x 68.3 mm)Standard Package First Mate Handheld Thermal Camera, Hot Shoe Charging & Video Output Accessory, 4 Rechargeable AA Batteries, AC Power Adapter/Charger, Car Adapter/Charger, Neck Lanyard, Operator’s Manual, USB Cable, Video Output Cable, and SD CardWarranty 2 YearAccessories 2x Extender, Soft Case, Hard CaseRange Performance (No Extender)†Detect Man (1.8 m × 0.5 m) ~1,033’ (315 m) ~1,500’ (450 m) ~4,757’ (1,450 m)Detect Small Vessel (2.3 m x 2.3 m) ~2,940’ (896 m) ~4,200’ (1,280 m) ~2.4 mi (3,900 m)Range Performance (2X Extender)† Detect Man (1.8 m x 0.5 m) ~1,815’ (553 m) ~2,590’ (790 m) N/ADetect Small Vessel (2.3 m x 2.3 m) ~4,938’ (1,505 m) ~1.3 mi (2,150 m) N/AFirst MateEquipment described herein may require US Government authorization for export purposes.
