Long Range Night Vision

Long Range Night Vision

A breakthrough technology that provides superior identification and recognition capabilities compared to the best thermal imager. I​n high traffic areas like commercial shipping channels, it is particularly important to properly distinguish between civilians rightfully exercising their professional or leisure activities and those attempting to commit illegal trades such as drug trafficking, illegal alien smuggling, terrorism and piracy. 

With the increasing acts of piracy and terrorism at sea, it is now essential to identify a ship and corroborate that the declared identity is the same as what can be read from the hull. To gather as much of this information as possible, a night surveillance system must be able to provide high resolution, realtime video rate images providing the reflective properties of paint, materials and ideally, see through glass for a complete observation.

The ARGC cameras have two sensors that can be used with the high magnification telescope: a color camera and an Intensified Charged-Couple Device (ICCD) camera, gated to the laser pulse. The telescope design is achromatic and therefore the camera can provide the same high magnification at day or night. Moreover, a wide-field-of-view color camera is also available for day observation. A thermal camera can be installed on the top of the ARGC-2400 or inside the enclosure of the ARGC-750 based on required performance.

With a range gated intensified camera for night surveillance and two color sensors (Narrow Field Of View (NFOV) and Wide Field Of View (WFOV)) for day operation, the ARGC-2400 is uniquely positioned to provide unequaled identification performance. It has been engineered to meet the stringent requirements of coastal & border surveillance as well as Critical Infrastructures protection.

THE ARGC-750 NIGHT VISION CAMERA was especially engineered for perimeter and border surveillance. The ARGC-750 can be deployed as a standalone system or easily integrated with radars, Vessel Traffic Management System (VTMS) or thermal imagers. This portablecamera allows human identification at distances up to 1 km and license plate reading up to 500 m. Thanks to its operation in the near-infrared, this system also provides the capability to see through glass where the thermal imager is useless.
