Medium-wave infrared camera for border security and to counter unmanned aircraft introduced by FLIR
WILSONVILLE, Ore. – FLIR Systems Inc. in Wilsonville, Ore., is introducing the FLIR Ranger HDC MR high-definition medium-wave infrared (MWIR) border-security surveillance system to counter unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), illegal drug smuggling, and human trafficking.
The Ranger HDC MR can detect illegal activities even in degraded weather conditions, using embedded computing analytics and image processing to reduce the cognitive workload and enable operators to distinguish quickly between true threats and false alarms.
The high-performance HD thermal imaging system extends border security mission capability with a built-in fog filter to see through fog and haze, as well as an optional Merlin ASX turbulence filter to see through heat and air turbulence. The system's high-definition thermal imager has a 1280-by-720-pixel detector and a 1920-by-1080-pixel HD color TV camera.
The Ranger HDC MR surveillance camera also is ready to host on-board artificial intelligence (AI) image processing for fast decision-making, and includes an cyber security tool that scans each software release to help ensure the system is protected from cyber attacks.
