Applications
UAVs & Drones
Our ultra-lightweight UAV thermal imaging camera modules allow you to get more work done in fewer flights. The ITAR-free cameras can be fitted to fixed-wing and multirotor drone platforms, and provide long-range detection, identification and classification for critical situational awareness.
UGVs & Mobile Ground Vehicles
Our IR camera cores are ideal for integration into both military and civilian UGVs (unmanned ground vehicles) and ground robotics, and can be easily attached to enclosures, pan-tilt positioners, and other structures.
Security & Surveillance
Our MWIR and LWIR thermal imaging solutions enable the detection, recognizing and identification of potential threats with unprecedented levels of accuracy, providing protection for critical facilities and infrastructure such as ports, power stations, industrial sites, and military installations.
Optical Gas Imaging
We develop specialized thermal imaging cameras for optical gas imaging that can be fitted to UAVs and unmanned systems, providing a robust method of hazardous leak detection that saves time and money while keeping workers safe. Detectable gases include ethane, methane, propane, butane, octane and more.
Turnkey Solutions
In addition to HD drone camera modules for OEMs, we also provide turnkey thermal imaging solutions that can be customized for your specific application requirements. Seamless out-of-the-box connectivity can be provided via USB, Camera Link, SDI or Ethernet.
