FLIR, a Teledyne Technologies company, introduced the FLIR Scout Pro, a next-generation thermal monocular designed to meet the rigorous demands of law enforcement and public safety professionals.
Building on a legacy of reliable FLIR thermal monoculars, the Scout Pro offers exceptional situation awareness with its 32-degree field of view, allowing users to detect humans up to 500 metres (1,640 feet) away while maintaining a broad visual perspective. This balance of wide coverage and practical detection range provides the critical information and intelligence needed to patrol areas safely or to locate missing or injured people quickly.
FLIR Scout Pro pairs
The new Scout Pro monocular enables users to efficiently survey vast areas without losing time
Developed in partnership with law enforcement and public safety professionals, the FLIR Scout Pro pairs its wide field of view with a 640 × 480 thermal resolution, providing clear, high-quality imaging. The handheld infrared monocular offers two-, four-, six-, and eight-times zoom to magnify and obtain a closer image.
Perfect for both urban and rural environments, including open spaces for tracking moving targets, the new Scout Pro monocular enables users to efficiently survey vast areas without losing time or focus on observed objects or people.
Benefits of next-generation Scout Pro
“Thermal visibility is playing a much greater role in officer safety and life-saving activities,” said Peter Dekkers, Director of Business Development, First Responder Solutions at FLIR.
“To this end, law enforcement and public safety professionals demand quality, reliable, simple-to-use thermal imaging tools when seconds matter. This next-generation Scout Pro enables professionals to see more clearly in dark and low-visibility conditions. It provides first responders, law enforcement, and search and rescue professionals the ability to focus on the task at hand while improving overall decision support.”
Scout Pro mobile app

The Scout Pro introduces a redesigned user interface that improves upon previous generations of FLIR monoculars. By eliminating overlaid menus and settings, it ensures a continuous, unobstructed view of the target.
Paired with the Scout Pro mobile app, it offers wireless remote observation and surveillance, enabling teams to collaborate in real time through live video streaming, instant media sharing, and seamless content transfers, all from a single app.
Challenging in weather conditions
Built to operate in the toughest conditions, the compact, rugged, and water-resistant IP67-rated Scout Pro is durable enough to withstand a 2 metre (6.5 feet) drop and use in challenging weather conditions. Featuring an integrated battery that delivers over six hours of continuous use, the Scout Pro is available with an optional charging dock. The monocular can also be mounted on a tripod or placed on a flat surface during extended use.
The Scout Pro includes a two-year warranty with an additional complimentary three years offered upon registration and is available now for pre-order at the website. FLIR will premiere the new Scout Pro at SHOT Show 2025 in Las Vegas from January 21–24.
