DefendIR Series

Now with Continuous Optical Zoom

The DefendIR is an industry leading mid-range thermal imager that can see in complete darkness and through a multitude of environmental conditions including smoke, rain, snow, dust and dense fog. The DefendIR is based on Forward Looking InfraRed (FLIR) technology developed for the U.S. Military. The DefendIR is ideally suited for day and night perimeter security, maritime surveillance, and DHS/DoD applications. The ruggedized housing is environmentally sealed and certified to meet NEMA4X and IP66 specifications, standing up to the most challenging weather and temperature conditions. Offering 144 different configuration options, each camera can be customized to meet detailed range performance and site integration requirements. Combined with a true continuous optical zoom and state-of-theart video analytics, the DefendIR series offers a ground breaking integrated surveillance solution.

Continuous Optical Zoom

Most thermal cameras offer a multi-field-of-view or step-zoom. For instance, if it is necessary to
see farther out, the operator must step between the fields of view, causing a temporary loss of
the target image. The DefendIR CZ has a true, continuous optical zoom, giving the user the ability
to change fields of view while keeping the target in focus; adding an additional layer of security.

Superior Performance

The DefendIR is ideally suited for day and night perimeter security, maritime surveillance, and DHS/DoD applications. Offering fifteen lens and detector combinations, each camera can be customized to meet detailed range performance requirements. Featuring a sleek integrated pan and tilt design, the camera is capable of continuous 360° panning and a +/- 80° tilt withstanding temperatures ranging from -40° to +60°C. An external heater is available for extreme temperature situations. The ruggedized housing is environmentally sealed to meet NEMA4X and IP66 specifications and has been tested and certified by an independent lab. In 2004, the DefendIR withstood the full wrath of Hurricane Ivan as it made landfall on the Florida Panhandle, maintaining full operational performance throughout the storm.

Ease of Integration

Out of the box, the DefendIR is ready to integrate into your system. It supports most protocols used in commercial and military applications and can be easily integrated into existing fiber, wireless, or IP networks. It can also interface with VMD, radar, UGS or other trigger sensors for a "slew to cue" solution.
