- Medium wavelength infrared (MWIR) cameras are used as detection systems for gas leakage. Some of these gases are completely invisible to the naked eye.
- MWIR collects light within the spectral band of 3.0–5.0 μm. The MWIR band is the spectrum where thermal contrast is high, due to which the variation in radiation with temperature is less as compared to the LWIR band. Hence, MWIR images provide better contrast than LWIR images.
- Based on type, MWIR cameras are classified into handheld cameras and mountable/drone cameras. These cameras are lightweight and are useful for monitoring of hazardous gases.
- Additionally, MWIR thermal cameras are capable of achieving the longest range detection for thermal infrared surveillance cameras.

Rise in Demand for MWIR Cameras for Use in Military Operations
- MWIR cameras are largely used in military applications, such as security & surveillance, which is considered a major factor driving the market
- MWIR cameras are employed in surveillance systems to keep a track of the surroundings, owing to their capability to detect illegal activities even in degraded weather conditions
- Since MWIR cameras are used in various critical military operations, the demand for technologically advanced, high-definition resolution cameras is increasing. As a result of this, several manufacturers of MWIR cameras are focusing on developing high-definition resolution cameras at low prices.
- For instance, in March 2020, FLIR Systems, Inc. launched a new high-definition mid-range surveillance system for use in military applications, which captures HD imagery with AI (artificial intelligence) image processing for quick decision making, thereby enabling operators to distinguish between true threats and false alarms
- As a result of these advantages, the demand for MWIR cameras for use in military applications is increasing, which is expected to drive the global MWIR cameras market during the forecast period
