Aircraft Enhanced Vision Systems, Improving Operations in Disastrous Situations

This seminar is co-hosted with Jay Singh.

Our EVS-3600 is the latest in EVS technology, blending visible, short and a long-wave infrared high resolution cameras into a tri-band system. Ideal for post disaster, degraded airfield, aerial firefighting, and search and rescue operations, the system enhances visual acquisitions with lower weather inhibitors, enabling pilots to see through fog, snow, smoke and degraded visual conditions in disaster environments.
