Inspections
Detect heat anomalies
Product Description
The RealWear Thermal Camera Module is a modular thermal imaging accessory for the RealWear Navigator 520, built for industrial inspection, maintenance and diagnostic workflows. Developed with Teledyne FLIR, it replaces the standard camera module and combines a visible-light camera with a FLIR Lepton 3.5 thermal sensor. Frontline teams can inspect electrical systems, motors, pumps, mechanical equipment and buildings while keeping both hands available for the task. Multiple thermal and blended viewing modes help workers identify abnormal heat patterns, document findings and support preventative maintenance without introducing a separate handheld thermal camera.

The module adds real-time thermal imaging to the Navigator 520, with a FLIR Lepton 3.5 sensor and a stated measurement range from -20°C to 400°C.
- 160 x 120 thermal
- -20 to 400°C
This helps maintenance teams identify heat anomalies during inspections while retaining the Navigator's hands-free, voice-controlled workflow.
Flexible image modes
Workers can switch between standard visual, thermal, low-blend, high-blend and FLIR MSX imaging modes depending on the inspection task.
- 5 camera modes
- FLIR MSX mode
The different views make it easier to add visual context to thermal patterns and capture evidence suited to maintenance and diagnostic reporting.
Built for field use
The camera module is IP66 rated and designed as a replaceable module for the rugged RealWear Navigator platform.
- IP66 rated
- Modular design
It supports companies that need thermal inspection capability in industrial environments without moving workers to a separate handheld device.
RealWear Thermal Camera Module for business
The RealWear Thermal Camera Module is a modular thermal imaging accessory for the RealWear Navigator 520, built for industrial inspection, maintenance and diagnostics. It pairs a FLIR Lepton 3.5 sensor at 160 x 120 thermal resolution and a minus 20 to 400 C range with a 48 MP visual sensor and 1080p 60 fps video, in an IP66 housing. VR Expert AI supplies it to maintenance and reliability teams.
Volume pricing and bulk orders
As a RealWear distributor, VR Expert AI offers volume pricing and business invoicing on imaging modules. Thermal capability is usually deployed to a subset of inspectors rather than a whole fleet, so quantities are typically small and role-based. Request a quote with your inspection headcount.
Thermal inspection without putting the tools down
A separate thermal camera means a technician stops, retrieves a device, shoots, then writes up findings later. Mounting the sensor to the headset keeps thermal inspection inside the same hands-free workflow: check a motor, bearing or panel, capture the evidence and continue. Five imaging modes and FLIR Thermal Studio support cover reporting after the visit.
Where it fits in a RealWear deployment
The module extends the RealWear Navigator 520 rather than replacing any part of it, so mounting, charging and power accessories and smart glasses accessories choices stay the same. Inspection findings are also a natural remote support trigger, since a thermal anomaly is usually the point at which a field technician wants a specialist on the call.
Where to buy the RealWear Thermal Camera Module
Buy the RealWear Thermal Camera Module through VR Expert AI with volume pricing, business invoicing and delivery across the EU and US. Ask a specialist to confirm device compatibility and the reporting workflow before you order.
