Description
The US Army is seeking a commercial off-the-shelf digital open-end array marine radar with high signal accuracy and excellent reliability. The desired platform must meet specific capabilities, including a high-definition long-range pan, tilt, zoom day and night observation camera, two-axis gyro stabilization, and thermal detection capabilities. The camera should have an 8-megapixel high-resolution CMOS sensor, an HD lens with 30-power optical zoom, and a mid-wave infrared cooled thermal imager. The system should also have a 12KM laser range finder, continuous zoom, and command and control software with slew to cue via NMEA 0183 protocol. The sensors should be integrated into a rugged IP67-rated housing.
Key features required:
• High-definition long-range pan, tilt, zoom day and night observation camera
• Two-axis gyro stabilization
• 8-megapixel high-resolution CMOS sensor
• HD lens with 30-power optical zoom
• Thermal detection capabilities up to 35KM
• Mid-wave infrared cooled thermal imager
• 12KM laser range finder
• Continuous zoom and command and control software with slew to cue via NMEA 0183 protocol
• GPS sensor
• Rugged IP67-rated housing
