The Duo's form factor is based on the GoPro allowing it to be used on any drone that can mount a GoPro.

The Duo has two cameras: one for shooting standard HD video and a thermal-imaging camera.

Using the Flir UAS app, you can toggle between cameras or even choose a combined mode that overlays the details of the HD camera onto the images from the thermal-imaging one.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
