ICx Unveils the Next Generation of Ruggedized Fixed Thermal Imagers
The newest VisionIR™ combines high end thermal electronics with streamlined housing and advanced, ruggedized features.
ICx Technologies, a developer of advanced technology solutions for homeland and military security, unveils the next generation of ruggedized thermal imagers at this week’s ASIS International in Las Vegas, NV. With advanced capabilities to protect against water and particulate intrusion, the VisionIR offers a low cost, low power consumption alternative in a fixed thermal unit for the military and commercial security market. The VisionIR is developed and manufactured by ICx Imaging Systems, a business unit of ICx Technologies based in Florida.
Fully customizable and featuring several lens and detector options, the VisionIR offers remote focusing capabilities or can be provided in a focus free alternative. The camera is highly compatible with video analytic applications and provides a new 16mm lens option for an expanded field of view, ideal for surveillance.
"Our next generation VisionIR is specifically designed to protect against seawater, snow, heavy rain and sand intrusion," said Nirav Pandya, General Manager of ICx Imaging Systems. "The on-board Pelco D Protocol, which provides low power consumption as well as easy installation, makes the VisionIR an ideal solution for port, airport, border and commercial surveillance applications."
The VisionIR is environmentally sealed in a nitrogen purged housing which meets NEMA 4X and IP66 specifications. Certified and tested by an independent lab, the VisionIR offers consistent and outstanding performance amid a myriad of adverse weather and daylight conditions.
