Longest range images in complete darkness
23 Nov 09
Bosch Security Systems has launched what it claims to be the security industry’s longest-range active infrared imaging system.
The GVS1000 is an integrated day/night, pan/tilt/zoom surveillance solution for critical security applications.
It provides full DCRI (detection, classification, recognition and identification) in total darkness, “meeting the highest level of performance for night-time surveillance”.
With one kilometer of recognition-level performance and1.2 kilometers of classification-level performance, the GVS1000 can deliver detail necessary to determine whether or not an object or person is friend or foe, such as clothing, letters or numbers, even in complete darkness.
Says the company: “This level of imaging gives users information needed to make important security decisions and is often required for critical applications such as port and maritime monitoring, transportation and airport surveillance and border and extended perimeter security that requires long range 24/7 imaging.
“Such scene detail at long range is often impossible to obtain with other night-time surveillance technologies, such as thermal imaging.”
It has an IR-corrected, long range lens capability of 60x optical zoom with night vision capabilities beyond 1.2 kilometers.
With a focal length of 12.5 to 750 millimeters or 25 to 1500 millimeters (with double function engaged), the lens works with a high-performance Dinion XF sensor to produce ultra-high quality images at long distances.
The GVS1000 uses two sets of active infrared illuminators for both long- and medium-to-short range night-time imaging, “eliminating safety concerns commonly associated with laser-based infrared systems”.
