Merging the exploding Android smartphone world with the Thermal Imaging world: Opgal has announced the launch of Therm-App

Opgal Optronic Industries has announced the launch of Therm-App. The device turns smartphones into powerful thermal cameras, featuring high-resolution thermography and long range, enhanced night vision capabilities for Android mobile devices. 

"Therm-App brings enhanced long-range vision and high-resolution thermography to Android devices, offering an unmatched resolution of 384 x 288, previously only available on standalone professional cameras and devices," says Amit Mattatia, President & CEO of Opgal. 

The Therm-App device fits multiple phone models. It can also be mounted on any tripod or camera handle using its standard connector. With its interchangeable lenses system, the device provides effective detection of faraway targets through its long range (19mm) lens, and a wider view through its 6.8mm lens. 

The technology can be used by professionals in multiple use cases in security, safety, healthcare, veterinary, construction, maintenance, wildlife observation and many other applications. It enables smartphone users to record, save, and share thermal images and videos with their contacts through using email, mobile messaging applications, or social networks.
