Workswell Wiris: Revolutionizing Thermal Imaging

Arnošt Vespalec's Award-Winning Design for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Arnošt Vespalec's Workswell Wiris, a groundbreaking thermal imaging system, is making waves in the aviation industry. Inspired by new technologies, this design is the first of its kind, offering unique features and applications for drones and other unmanned aerial vehicles.

Workswell Wiris is not just another thermal imaging system. Its unique properties set it apart from the competition. Weighing approximately 400 grams, it is the lightest product on the market in its class. The design includes an internal aluminum frame that serves multiple functions, such as a heat exchanger, crash protector, and mounting foundation component. The lens cover also serves multiple purposes, acting as a sun-shield and angular mounting internal component.

The design process of Wiris was not without its challenges. Vespalec had to find companies that could manufacture the parts in high quality for a reasonable price. Several prototypes were created, some of which were not up to standard. However, through perseverance and innovation, the final product was realized.

The realization technology of Wiris includes an anodized aluminum internal rim. The internal electronics need to be well-heated, and the cover has holes to facilitate good heat exchange with the air. This feature significantly influenced the design and construction of the device.

The project began in 2015 in Prague and was completed in 2016. During this time, extensive research was conducted to ensure the success of the product. The research process involved deep dives into each aspect of the design, finding the best solutions for each challenge. The result is a device that can be used in a variety of ways and has a significant impact on research and industry on a global scale.

Workswell Wiris has been recognized for its innovative design, winning the Golden A' Scientific Instruments and Research Equipment Design Award in 2017. This award is granted to outstanding creations that reflect the designer's prodigy and wisdom, advancing art, science, design, and technology.

In conclusion, Arnošt Vespalec's Workswell Wiris is a testament to the power of innovative design. It is a product that not only meets the demands of the modern world but also pushes the boundaries of what is possible in the field of thermal imaging technology.
