Gremsy VIO F1 · FLIR-equipped EO/IR payload
VIO F1 combines a 20× optical-zoom visible camera with a FLIR Boson 640 Radiometric thermal core on a three-axis gimbal. It is intended for drone projects where ordinary photographs and infrared observations need to describe the same equipment, building or inspection area.
The visible camera records up to 3840 × 2160 at 30 fps and captures JPEG photographs. Its optical zoom helps frame details such as equipment housings, connections and roof features while retaining an ordinary image for the inspection report.
The F1 uses a 14 mm lens and a FLIR Boson 640R core with a published 60 Hz thermal imaging rate. This is the F1 configuration; the VIO G1 uses a different thermal core, lens and frame rate.
A radiometric sensor, a colour thermal video and a file containing temperature data are different things. An operator may need only a live thermal view, while an inspection team may need values that can be examined after the flight. Those requirements lead to different software and recording questions even when the camera housing is the same.
The published ordinary media formats include JPEG photographs and MP4 video. Those files should not be assumed to be FLIR R-JPEG or SEQ data suitable for a particular offline analysis program. If temperature reporting is important, state the required file or stream format and analysis software when requesting the payload.
The sensor's imaging rate describes the thermal channel. Gremsy's V3 software announcement describes a separate RAW IR streaming feature and lists a lower data rate for F1. Firmware, software and data-export method must therefore be matched to the intended workflow.

VIO provides HDMI/RTSP video and published UART/Ethernet control paths, with documentation for ArduPilot and PX4 environments. The aircraft-side connection, ground application and video receiver all influence the experience at the operator's screen. A compatible autopilot alone does not establish the full integration.
For civil inspection work, consider how the operator switches between EO and IR and how the resulting image is recorded. The manufacturer lists single-channel and picture-in-picture views. A report may benefit from a visual overview and a corresponding thermal view rather than one heavily enlarged image without location context.
Choose VIO F1 when both visible imaging and the specified FLIR thermal channel are useful to the job. If the requirement is entirely visual, the ZIO visible-only payload is worth comparing. If the aircraft has a tight payload allowance, include the mount and damping assembly in the mechanical review before choosing either camera.
The three-axis gimbal provides mechanical camera stabilization. Gremsy also describes electronic image stabilization in its V3 software release, subject to the supported firmware and software combination. We treat EIS as a version-dependent feature rather than a standard claim for every VIO unit.
Image quality still depends on installation vibration, lens settings and the video path. For repeatable inspection footage, check vibration at the mount and the selected video settings. Thermal image interpretation also depends on the inspected surface and operating conditions.
Send FD your aircraft and controller models, preferred HDMI or network video input, and whether the thermal result is live viewing, ordinary recording or temperature data for analysis. For data work, name the analysis software and required format so the relevant firmware and output method can be discussed before configuration.
