Flir Unleashes Next-Generation Thermal Intelligence for Unrivaled Predictive Power at CES 2026

Step into the future of industrial intelligence as Flir takes center stage at CES 2026 in Las Vegas. From January 6-9, Booth 9037 will be the epicenter of a thermal revolution, showcasing the groundbreaking iXX-Series app-enabled thermal cameras. These next-generation devices, coupled with the intuitive Flir Assetlink browser-based software, promise to redefine electrical and mechanical inspections across critical sectors like manufacturing, industrial, commercial, datacenter, and utilities. Prepare to witness how Flir is transforming predictive maintenance, offering unprecedented insights and delivering tangible return-on-investment through cutting-edge infrared imaging.

The Game-Changing iXX-Series: Your Thermal Smartphone

Leading Flir’s innovative charge is the highly anticipated iXX-Series, a line of thermal cameras designed to operate with the familiar ease of a smartphone – but for sophisticated thermography. Powered by intuitive applications and built upon Flir’s revolutionary ACE platform, these infrared cameras offer seamless cloud connectivity and effortless scalability across diverse teams. A significant pain point for technicians has long been the time spent on reporting, often consuming up to 50% of their workflow. The iXX-Series, however, with its integrated Assetlink software and connected workflows, aims to eliminate this burden entirely, allowing professionals to dedicate their focus to critical inspections rather than cumbersome paperwork.

Staying true to CES’s legacy as a launchpad for breakthrough innovation, Flir will provide live demonstrations of two standout models from the series: the i64 and i65. These advanced iXX-Series sensors democratize NFPA 70B-certified thermal inspections, making expert-level capabilities accessible to every technician, regardless of experience. This is a crucial development, especially given that approximately 60% of maintenance teams currently grapple with a shortage of skilled thermographers.

Both Flir iXX-Series models boast high-resolution (480 × 640) thermal imaging, a responsive 5-inch touchscreen, and a rugged, glove-friendly design built for demanding environments. The i65 elevates this further with integrated LTE connectivity, enabling users to securely upload thermal data, share detailed reports, and collaborate in real-time directly from the field, bypassing the need for Wi-Fi. Booth visitors at CES 2026 will have the exclusive opportunity to witness the i64 and i65 in action, showcasing their powerful app-driven functionalities live on an expansive touchscreen display.

Beyond the Industrial: Science, Safety, and Smart Solutions

The Flir booth isn’t just for industrial applications; it will also feature cutting-edge science-grade cooled cameras streaming live. Attendees can explore how the ability to visualize minute temperature differences with unparalleled image quality revolutionizes fields like electronics development, advanced university research, and non-destructive testing.

Further captivating demonstrations will highlight the versatility of Flir technology, including the innovative Flir Edge Pro wireless thermal camera, which seamlessly transforms any iOS or Android smartphone or tablet into a powerful thermal imager, capturing crisp infrared images and videos with ease. For professionals in law enforcement and public safety, the new Flir Scout Pro thermal monocular will be on display, promising unwavering reliability for high-stakes missions.

Beyond these hands-on experiences, wall-mounted screens will unveil a comprehensive suite of Flir innovations. This includes advanced thermal AI cameras, visible AI cameras, intelligent traffic solutions for urban and interurban environments, sophisticated early fire detection cameras, precision optical gas imaging technology, robust video management systems, and cutting-edge PTZ (pan, tilt, zoom) AI cameras and radars – all demonstrating Flir’s expansive reach.

To ensure an engaging and interactive experience, visitors can also enjoy the Flir thermal selfie booth, test their perception in the hidden heat challenge, and enter a raffle for exciting prizes.
