# Introducing Thermal Alerts

We are excited to introduce **Thermal Alerts**, a powerful feature designed to improve real-time situational awareness for operators using drones with thermal payload. With Thermal Alerts, operators can proactively monitor objects within the drone’s field of view and set alerts based on temperature thresholds detected by the thermal camera. This ensures timely detection of temperature anomalies, enabling more effective decision-making in security, inspection, and emergency response scenarios.

#### Key Features:

* **Dynamic Thermal Sensitivity:** Operators can switch between low-gain and high-gain thermal modes to optimize detection sensitivity based on environmental conditions.
* **Real-Time Alerts & Notifications:** Users can configure sound alerts on the FlytBase dashboard to receive instant notifications when objects fall **outside** the defined temperature range.
