Obzerv Commercially Releases a Modular Active Range-Gated Camera for Airborne Multi-Spectral Imaging Turrets

Quebec, Canada, June 14, 2010 (ots/PRNewswire)

Obzerv Technologies
Inc. today announces the commercial availability of a Modular Active
Range-Gated Camera. Airborne Multi-Spectral Imaging Turrets
manufacturers around the world are constantly increasing the number
of sensors available as well as their performances. The commercial
availability of Obzerv's Modular Range-Gated Camera, will fast-track
the deployment of Active Range-Gated Imaging capability in existing
Multi-Spectral Imaging Turrets.
The identification performances of Obzerv's land-based cameras
are second to none and have driven their deployment around the world
in mission critical applications. The benefits of integrating an
Active Range-Gating Imaging sensor into a Multi-Spectral Imaging
Turrets are numerous and would apply to a large number of airborne
applications such as, but not limited to: Intelligence, Surveillance,
and Reconnaissance (ISR), law enforcement, fishery control and
monitoring of environmental compliance to regulation, all of which
that can now be conducted at safe stand-off ranges. Another notable
application for such product is Search and Rescue (SAR). Specifically
in the case of Airborne SAR missions at sea, Obzerv's technology
could drastically improve the success rate since the reflective
stripes of life vests, or flotation devices, appear like a light
beacons when observed with an Active Range-Gated Camera. Furthermore,
Obzerv's technology has the inherent ability to display the
difference in reflectivity between camouflage nets and the
environment where they are used, an undeniable tactical advantage
when performing airborne recon missions.
"We are proud of the integration and miniaturization challenges
that have been overcome with the development of this modular camera.
Our goal was to deliver the smallest possible payload to enable
Active Range-Gated Imaging in existing Multi-Spectral Imaging Turrets
without sacrificing any other capabilities, hence providing a net
operational advantage to existing products," said Louis Demers CTO &
Co-Founder of Obzerv Technologies.
This new Modular Active Range-Gated Camera is the first member of
a family of products aimed at facilitating the integration of Active
Range-Gated Imaging in Multi-Spectral Imaging Turrets. This new
Modular Camera has been installed in the MX-20 multi-sensor,
multi-spectral imaging system from L-3 WESCAM.
