SWIR Rugged Surveillance Camera
The Night Fox is a SWIR-based flood illumination system with integrated imaging. The custom large 1550 illuminator and incorporated 640×512 SWIR camera light up the night for the user and make this a best-in-class product. Battery packs in the illuminator and camera body allow for long life and usage (>8 hours).
Applications include search and rescue teams, scouts and border control. The rugged frame and convenient carry form factor make this product ideal for these uses.
