Flir One
Some cool gear arrived at the office on Tuesday : Modern MacBook Prosand the newFlir One($349 ) thermic imaging camera for the iPhone 5s . Macworld Lab place up the laptop computer for benchmark testing , so I take on a few motion-picture show of the new $ 2499 15 - inch MacBook Pro as it churn through Speedmark 9 .
I originally post these characterisation to Twitter , but I collected them here as a point in time of reference and for folks who do n’t follow me on Twitter .
Short background on the Flir One
The Flir One ( which won aBest of Show awardat the2014 Macworld / iWorld ) is built like an external iPhone battery . You skid the iPhone 5s into the Flir One ’s Lightning loading dock , and you use the Flir One apps to dart exposure . ( The apps are final , but Flir is waiting for Apple approval for the iTunes Store . )
The Flir One does n’t rely on the iPhone camera at all , and it has its own battery to power the thermal imaging photographic camera — the battery does n’t render a charge for the iPhone .
Flir One app [ The laptop computer in this snapshot is not the unexampled MacBook Pro . It is an older simulation . ]
The app provides unlike shading schemes that you may switch by just swiping across the app . you could deepen the scheme while you ’re framing the shot or after the blastoff has been take .
Shooting the new MacBook Pro
While the $ 2499 MacBook Pro was carry a artwork test , I took a picture and station it to Twitter . I used the Flir One ’s “ Rainbow ” color scheme .
The warmest spots are suggest in red .
I also took this picture , which used the Flir One ’s “ Hottest ” color system .
The red spot indicate the warmest spots on an open MacBook Pro .
@albertmarinithen asked the pursuit :
Which reminded me of the Flir One ’s topographic point m . When you aim the Flir One ’s hashmarks at an object , the physical object ’s surface temperature appears on cover . The spot meter is n’t on by default ; you switch it on in the app setting .
After I twist on the spot meter , I accept this film .
Flir One has a spot meter that can determine the surface temperature of an object .
According to Flir One , the berth measure has a plus / subtraction evaluation of three degree Fahrenheit , and the most accurate recital come when an object is within a measure of the camera .
@gtcazreplied via Twitter :
So I accept this picture of the bottom of the MacBook Pro while it was running a benchmark run ( but not a graphics test ) .
The back of the new $ 2499 15 - inch MacBook Pro .
