FLIR M364 is an advanced thermal camera combining 640×512 FLIR Boson imaging, 2-axis gyro stabilization, 9 Hz or 30 Hz performance and seamless Furuno integration for confident long-range thermal detection and superior night awareness. Read more.
The FLIR M364 Thermal Camera System is built for boat owners who want a major step up in thermal detection, image detail and stabilized night awareness, with professional integration into compatible Furuno chartplotter and MFD systems. It combines a high-resolution 640 × 512 FLIR thermal sensor, 2-axis gyro stabilization, full pan-and-tilt movement and advanced onboard image processing to help detect vessels, buoys, obstacles and heat signatures in darkness, glare and low-visibility conditions.
Powered by the FLIR Boson thermal imaging core, the M364 sits above the M332 as the stronger thermal-only choice for users who want more range, more image definition and more confidence from the helm without moving into a dual thermal / visible camera system.
This model can be selected in 9 Hz or 30 Hz, depending on the desired video refresh rate. Choose 9 Hz for strong high-resolution thermal awareness, or 30 Hz for a smoother image when tracking movement or using the camera actively while underway.
Within the FLIR range, the M364 is the focused choice for high-resolution thermal imaging, stabilized detection and rugged M-Series integration, including compatible Furuno multifunction display environments, in a clean thermal-only platform.
The M364 adds a more powerful thermal layer to the navigation setup. Radar gives range and target movement. AIS adds vessel data when targets transmit. The M364 gives the operator high-resolution thermal awareness, helping identify heat signatures and non-water objects with more detail than lower-resolution thermal systems.
For compatible Furuno helm setups, the M364 can bring high-resolution FLIR thermal video into the existing chartplotter or MFD environment, helping keep camera viewing and control closer to the main navigation workflow.

The M364 is especially useful for:
The main advantage of the M364 is its 640 × 512 VOx microbolometer. Compared with the M332’s standard-resolution thermal sensor, the M364 gives the helm a denser, more detailed thermal image and stronger detection performance.
That extra resolution is especially valuable when scanning farther ahead, interpreting small targets or working in more demanding navigation conditions. The camera helps reveal boats, buoys, structures and human-sized targets in complete darkness, glare and light fog.
For boat owners who want thermal detection with a stronger, stabilized M-Series platform, the M364 delivers a confident step above compact and standard-resolution thermal systems.
The M364 uses 2-axis gyro stabilization to help reduce the effect of vessel motion on the image. Vertical stabilization compensates for pitch, while horizontal stabilization helps maintain the camera’s field of view on the selected bearing.
That makes the thermal image easier to use when the boat is moving, the sea state increases or the operator is scanning at distance. With higher-resolution thermal imaging, stabilization becomes even more valuable because the user can hold a clearer view on the area that matters.
With 360° continuous pan and ±90° tilt, the camera can scan around the vessel instead of being limited to one fixed angle.
The M364 offers broad marine video integration, with analog NTSC / PAL video, HD-SDI lossless video and two independent IP video streams using H.264 / MJPEG. It is also ONVIF Profile S conformant, making it suitable for compatible marine video and security-style systems.
FLIR M-Series cameras are designed to integrate with compatible chartplotters and multifunction displays from brands including Furuno, Garmin, Raymarine and Simrad. For Furuno users, the key check is the selected NavNet or compatible MFD environment, including display model, software version, control support and network setup before purchase.
The M364 also supports Marine Video Analytics, which can help identify non-water objects in the thermal scene when used within a compatible setup.
These figures position the M364 as a stronger long-range thermal awareness system than the M332, with higher image resolution and improved detection capability for more demanding navigation.
Choose the FLIR M364 Thermal Camera System if you want high-resolution thermal imaging, stabilized viewing and stronger detection range in a thermal-only M-Series platform. It is a strong fit for owners who want more thermal performance than the M332 without adding a visible camera.
For boats already using compatible Furuno chartplotters or multifunction displays, the M364 is a practical way to add high-resolution FLIR thermal imaging to the existing navigation display environment without moving to a dual-sensor camera.

The M364 makes most sense when the buyer wants stronger thermal range, higher image definition and stabilized night awareness without paying for visible-camera capability. It is the clean high-resolution thermal choice in the FLIR M-Series.
At Sail360, we select marine electronics for long-term value, technical reliability and real onboard usefulness, helping buyers choose equipment that fits their vessel, display system and navigation style.
