28 Air Monitoring World’s fi rst hands-free, voice-controlled thermal camera
RealWear’s innovative Thermal Camera module connects seamlessly with RealWear NavigatorTM Series headsets, includes radiometric FLIRLepton® and is the only device that supports MSX® technology to enable frontline industrial professionals to conduct inspections, enhance remote support sessions and avoid equipment downtime using simple voice commands
“RealWear Navigator head-mounted devices, with its revolutionary modular design, continues to gain support with Global 1000 companies as the new gold standard in assisted reality. The compelling option to add thermal image capture without occupying your hands in hazardous environments gives frontline professionals more real-time information to do their jobs safely and productively,” said Rama Oruganti, Chief Product Offi cer at RealWear. “By combining Teledyne FLIR’s thermal expertise with RealWear’s best-in-class voice-driven wearables through its Thermal by FLIR program, we’re creating a digital tool with extended capabilities for the modern frontline worker.”
“As a XR wearable evangelist for Honda, the idea of leveraging the modular design of RealWear Navigator 500 is a no-brainer,” said Greg Cooper, Innovation Engineer, Manufacturing, American Honda Motor Company. “A fully hands-free thermal camera will give our technicians another superpower to get the job done fast. For example, a hands-free fully voice-controlled thermal enables us to immediately show what we’re doing to address airlocks and ventilation leaks to the reliability team to give them the confi dence that our engines and systems are reliable and meet our high-quality standards.”
Imagery is viewable in real time and will in the future have the ability to be shared via Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Webex Expert on Demand, among others. Compatible with Teledyne FLIR’s ecosystem, the special radiometric JPEG format images can be stored, transmitted, and downloaded for use within the FLIR Thermal Studio post-processing software for greater analysis and reporting options.
“Thermal imaging is critical to assembly, effective condition monitoring and predictive maintenance programs,” said Dan Jarvis, Sr. Director Business Development Teledyne FLIR. “RealWear Navigator 500 is the only hands-free system to currently incorporate the FLIR Lepton and patented MSX technology, which overlays the live edge detail from the visible camera on the thermal image to provide critical information.”
Key use cases of RealWear Navigator with thermal include electrical, mechanical, plumbing, HVAC inspections along with initial installation readiness, process monitoring or line monitoring where a connected hands-free device adds fl exibility, safety, and overall effi ciency for optimum plant production such as automotive assembly line processes.
“Our long-term vision of assisted intelligence takes shape when you start connecting new captured data like thermal imaging into the cloud and beyond,” continued Oruganti. “Industrial wearables have a huge role to play going forward in industry 4.0, and we’re proud to be a part of the global movement.”

Crowcon Detection Instruments Ltd has launched ‘Sensit by Crowcon’, a new range of air quality monitors and the fi rst step in Crowcon’s ongoing commitment to air quality moving forward.
Air quality has been a hot topic in recent years with increasing regulation on and awareness of the issues. WHO’s 2021 Global Air Quality Guidelines have prescribed new recommended levels of the most common air pollutants to be targeted whilst DEFRA’s 2019 Clean Air Strategy outlines the action to be taken to reduce emissions across industries to protect the environment and the nation’s health.
The Sensit by Crowcon RAMP is a low-cost and easy to deploy, multi-industry air monitoring solution. It measures PPB (Parts Per Billion) resolution for up to fi ve pollutants including CO, NO, SO2, O2, NO2, SO2 as well as detection of PM2.5 and PM10. With features including its robust, yet lightweight design, weather resistant casing, long-life low-cost sensors and local or remote operation capabilities, the RAMP is a reliable solution to provide real-time insights into the air we breathe.
The Sensit by Crowcon SPOD provides real-time, direct-reading capabilities for localised emissions and reliable, connected detection for VOC measurement. The SPOD is ideal for implementation across the oil and gas, chemical and petrochemical industries where VOC emissions are prevalent. With a small footprint it is ideal for near-fenceline applications and can be remotely operated for ease of use.
Air quality monitoring is a key element of the solution to the global issue of air quality, and Sensit by Crowcon’s reliable, low-cost and easy to use air quality monitors will provide you with the data and insights you need in order to take action to improve air quality.
A number of white papers have also been developed covering key topics in air quality including keeping communities safe and an overview of the most common air pollutants. For More Info, email:
57907pr@reply-direct.com email: Casella’s dBadge2 Noise Dosimeter Achieves WELMEC Approval
For More Info, email: email:
Casella, expert in noise monitoring equipment, announces it has achieved Western European Legal Metrology Cooperation (WELMEC) approval on its dBadge2 noise dosimeter in Spain. The new certifi cation establishes Casella as one of only two manufacturers that have a product’s acoustic performance verifi ed against the international standard for noise dosimeters IEC 61252, ensuring compliance with workplace noise regulations.
The WELMEC certifi cation is the fi rst of its kind for acoustic products, indicating that noise data is being stored in a new way within the instrument, allowing downloaded data to be legally recalled and verifi ed.
Designed to help combat noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), the dBadge2 offers a recognised and compliant method of making a noise exposure assessment, helping to identify workers at risk.
The dBadge2 can be worn by employees for their entire working shift and its lightweight, body-mounted design is ideal for personal noise exposure monitoring. The dBadge2 also features motion detection to ensure that the device is consistently worn, and optional features such as level-triggered audio recording to verify sources of high noise levels, ensuring result accuracy can be determined.
The dBadge2 with AirWave app connectivity enables employee noise exposure monitoring and reporting in real-time and without disruption to workers. The app enables users to remotely start, pause or stop a measurement run, monitor battery life and memory capacity and check measurement progress direct from a mobile device, without having to disturb the worker.
Equipped with Casella’s industry-leading software, NoiseSafe, the pioneering technology provides graphical analysis of noise levels throughout the day and is capable of downloading a typical eight-hour workplace recording in just a few seconds.
“We’re delighted to have achieved yet another certifi cation for the dBadge2, comments Tim Turney, Global Marketing Manager at Casella. “NIHL can seriously impair a worker’s quality of life. Having a noise dosimeter capable of measuring exposure accurately and as required by the regulations is critical for ensuring that exposure is controlled, and more workers are protected.”
