The AVIO (NEC) R500 series high-resolution thermal camera has many features such as 1.2MP SR Thermal Image (1280 x 960 pixels), with a 5MP Visual image and a temperature resolution of 0.03°C and ±1°C accuracy.
There are 2 models available depending on your application. The AVIO R500Pro series with a temperature range of -40 to +2000°C makes this model ideal for R&D, whilst the R500 series, with a temperature range of -40 to +500°C is ideal for electrical inspection applications.
