FLIR公司成立于1978年，最初提供红外热成像，进行能源审核，使用车辆上安装的系统。后来我们扩大了我们的工作重点，如热成像技术的其他应用程序和市场稳定的执法飞机，用于工业系统监测辐射测量设备，和热成像系统，用于在地面为基础的安全，搜索和救援的热成像摄像机。我们自大幅增长由于跨执行了一系列的收购与合并的市场越来越多的红外产品的需求不断增加。今天，我们和传感器系统的设计，制造，营销，增强的用户在各种各样的商业，工业，和政府市场的感知和认识世界各国领导人之一，在国际上以及国内。我们的商业系统业务的设计和制造的产品，在使用各种新兴的工业和商业市场的主要要求是在夜间和恶劣条件下可以看到或检测和测量微小的温度差异。这些产品在商业视觉应用，如商业和基础设施的安全，运输安全和夜视，娱乐划船，消防，和个人夜视，多种有益的;和热成像的应用，如预测和预防机械维修，研究和发展，工业性试验和测量，气体和液体泄漏检测，科学的分析。我们还设计，制造，和给原始设备制造商，在某些市场上出售相机的核心，读出集成电路，和其他子组件。我们在这些商业市场服务，我们纵向一体化的经营模式和我们广阔的分销网络，这使我们能够不断降低成本，开拓新的市场，特别是善于。我们的政府系统业务主要集中在市场需要性能非常高的态势感知工具。我们设计，制造和市场的热成像和雷达监视系统，化学和爆炸物检测产品，并交钥匙的集成传感器解决方案，以在全球范围内的政府实体。我们的客户受益于这些便携式和固定在部队保护，空中和地面的侦察，搜索和救援，执法，周边安全，边界和海上巡逻，航行安全，禁毒，和化学如应用系统提供有价值的信息，生物，放射性，核和爆炸物（CBRNE）检测。我们的政府系统部门之收入从销售到政府机构，我们将继续扩大我们的军事计划的企业，无论是在美国和国际. FLIR was founded in 1978, originally providing infrared imaging systems that were installed on vehicles for use in conducting energy audits. We later expanded our focus to other applications and markets for thermal imaging technology, such as stabilized thermal imaging cameras for law enforcement aircraft, radiometry devices for use in monitoring industrial systems, and thermal imaging systems for use in ground-based security and search and rescue. We have since grown substantially due to increasing demand for infrared products across a growing number of markets combined with the execution of a series of acquisitions. Today we are one of the world leaders in the design, manufacture, and marketing of sensor systems that enhance perception and awareness for a wide variety of users in the commercial, industrial, and government markets, internationally as well as domestically.   Our Commercial Systems business designs and manufactures products for use in a variety of emerging industrial and commercial markets where the primary requirements are to either see at night and in adverse conditions or to detect and measure minute temperature differences. These products are useful in a wide variety of commercial vision applications, such as commercial and infrastructure security, transportation safety and night vision, recreational boating, firefighting, and personal night vision; and thermography applications, such as predictive and preventative machinery maintenance, research and development, industrial test and measurement, gas and fluid leak detection, and scientific analysis. We also design, manufacture, and sell camera cores, readout integrated circuits, and other sub-components to OEMs in certain markets. We are particularly adept at serving these commercial markets with our vertically integrated operating model and our expansive distribution network, which allow us to continually reduce costs and open new markets. Our Government Systems business is focused primarily on markets where very high performance situational awareness tools are required. We design, manufacture, and market thermal imaging and radar surveillance systems, chemical and explosive detection products, and turn-key integrated sensor solutions to governmental entities across the globe. Our customers benefit from the valuable information these portable and fixed systems provide in applications such as force protection, airborne and ground-based surveillance, search and rescue, law enforcement, perimeter security, border and maritime patrol, navigation safety, drug interdiction, and chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosives (CBRNE) detection. Our Government Systems division derives its revenue from sales to government agencies and we are continuing to expand our military program business, both in the United States and internationally.
