How to Use a FLIR One Thermal Imaging Camera with magicplan

You can use our FLIR One integration to add thermal imaging information to your magicplan projects.

FLIR (Forward-Looking Infrared) technology enables the capture and visualization of thermal images. FLIR One thermal imaging cameras can be plugged right into your iOS and Android devices. This allows efficient and fast thermal images to be taken and added immediately to your project on-site or later to a completed project in magicplan.

Thermal images can be added to your floor plans in 2 ways:

  1. Add images to the "Details" section of your object, room, or floor. 
  2. Add images to an Annotation Object displayed in a room of your project. 

ℹ️ Note: The "Details" section and Annotation Objects are only available for Report and Estimate users.

How to add thermal images within the "Details" section of your object, room, or floor

  1. Select the "i" next to the object, room or floor name. 
  2. Tap the "Photos & Notes" tab, select the camera icon, make sure to switch to the "FLIR" option, and take the photo.
  3. If you have already taken a thermal image with the FLIR One app, you can add the photo from your gallery.

How to add a thermal image by adding an Annotation Object

  1. From your project's floor or room level, tap on "+ Insert," then tap "Object." 
  2. Tap on the "Annotation" category and select the "Photo" annotation object. 
  3. You can move or rotate the object to show where the camera points in your room. 
  4. Tap the "i" icon next to the camera object's name.
  5. Tap the "Photos & Notes" tab, select the camera icon, make sure to switch to the "FLIR" option, and take the photo.
  6. If you have already taken a thermal image with the FLIR One app, you can add the photo from your gallery.
