Flir Systems: ultra long range surveillance. Innovative, thermal imaging is Flir Systems’ constant goal. The HRC-59 x 735 and HRC-40 x 490 cameras are equipped with powerful optical zoom capability on the thermal image, a superior alternative to systems using a rotating lens.
This facility allows the cameras to see much more detail once a target has been detected, complementing the excellent situational awareness provided respectively by their 59 x 735 mm and 40 x 490 mm lenses. Rotating lens systems interrupt visual contact with the target whereas the new HRC cameras allow the operator to gradually zoom in without losing that focus.
There is no switching or swapping between images involved to distract the operator. Demonstrated for the first time in the United Kingdom at Ifsec, the HRC Series is designed to operate over an extremely long range.
Both cameras are equipped with a highly reliable, mid-wave, cooled indium antimonide (InSb) detector that produces crisp thermal images of 640 x 480 pixels on which the smallest of details can be seen. These new thermal cameras feature Flir Systems’ Advanced Digital Detail Enhancement that assures clear, good-contrast images even in extremely dynamic thermal scenes.
They can produce a clear image in total darkness, through light fog and smoke. The HRC-40 x 490 zooms between an 18.8° field of view and a 1.5° field of view. For even longer range performance the HRC-59 x 735 zooms between 9.4° and 0.75°. Both models are available as a multi-sensor. In this configuration they are equipped with a daylight camera, a GPS unit, digital electromagnetic compass; a laser rangefinder is optionally available.
The flexibility of these new thermal imaging cameras make them suitable for a wide variety of ultra long range security and surveillance applications in border control as well as in airports, ports, nuclear and other sensitive industrial facilities.
