Add spot, box, ellipse and line measurements with min / avg / max, and Delta-T between any two of them. PROFESSIONAL ANALYSIS • 8 color palettes plus your camera's own palette • Level/span with histogram, isotherms, automatic hot and cold markers • Live re-analysis: change emissivity, reflected temperature and distance, and temperatures recompute instantly • Visible-light blend, picture-in-picture, and MSX-style edge overlay • °C / °F / K • Full camera, lens, GPS and parameter inspector EXPORT & BATCH • Export the full temperature matrix to CSV • Export rendered images (PNG) and reproducible analysis settings (JSON) • Hotspot Triage: scan a whole folder and flag every image above your threshold • Batch export PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs on your device.
