SPYNEL
COMPACT AND MOBILE INFRARED PANORAMIC CAMERA
SPYNEL-M is a compact panoramic thermal camera for perimeter security.
SPYNEL-M is a compact and robust solution for monitoring large areas. Particularly compact (1.8 kg and 12x20cm), SPYNEL-M is a high-resolution panoramic thermal camera that acts like an infrared radar. The camera continuously captures full 360-degree infrared images, updated every second, providing real-time security against intrusions and threats of all kinds (people, RHIBs, vehicles, etc.)
SPYNEL-M is easily transportable: the camera stands in a backpack and can be deployed very quickly. The SPYNEL-M thermal camera has been designed to be deployed in a few minutes everywhere: from the top of a building, on a mast, in the woods… . The panoramic infrared camera requires only 5 watts of power. SPYNEL-M works with solar/ alternate power supply systems. It ensures a high level of autonomy espacially in remote operations. SPYNEL-M is fully autonomous meaning that the camera does not need any additional light source. SPYNEL-M is fully passive and undetectable (unjammable).

REACT FAST THANKS TO EARLY TARGET DETECTION
Reduce the time between target detection and counter measures with the SPYNEL-M. The SPYNEL-M embeds a high resolution infrared (IR) camera allowing a precise target classification. Spynel thermal imaging camera detects & recognizes an unlimited number of tracks, displaying high resolution images. The thermal sensor hardly tracks detectable threats, like small, slow or tangential moving targets. The Infrared Camera SPYNEL-M can be used as a standalone perimeter security solution or combined with existing systems.

Technical specifications
The 360° thermal camera Spynel-M provides real-time panoramic images with automatic intrusion detection and precise tracking capabilities. Spynel-M is fully passive (undetectable) and unjammable The infrared sensor operates in 24×7, in good or bad weather conditions
Backed with HGH’s exclusive Cyclope advanced threat detection software, the 360° Infrared (IR) camera of the SPYNEL-M allows early target discrimination at day and night. An unlimited number of tracks are simultaneously detected and identified. No exception is made for hardly detectable threats like swimmers, RIBs, low altitude air targets, UAVs or stealth aircrafts.
SPYNEL-M is a must-have solution for wide area surveillance including airport and airfield surveillance, harbour monitoring, Onshore oil & gas facility security, offshore oil & gas plateform protection, military base protection air, naval, forward operation base, critical infrastructure protection, maritime wide area surveillance, fire detection.

GAIA: automatic threats classification based on Artificial Intelligence
Integrated into the SPYNEL long-distance surveillance solutions, the newest GAIA Artificial Intelligence processing features unique capabilities in the market in terms of automatic classification of objects within panoramic thermal images. The AI module makes use of three patent-pending neuronal networks designed to recognize patterns for maritime, land and air surveillance applications. The automatic classification is operational at long-distance, on a very wide range of land and sea targets, from just a few pixels to very large objects.
The unique combination of GAIA Artificial Intelligence with Cyclope video analytics provides advanced detection, tracking and classification of any kind of threats. Whilst the use of Artificial Intelligence drastically lowers false alarm rate for wide area surveillance applications, it improves human decision efficiency and decreases the use of operational means.
From detection to classification : the 4 steps of the GAIA process

GAIA Artificial Intelligence is boosted by the I2Q image processing library allowing to achieve superior day/night image quality whatever the environmental conditions. I2Q image processing includes multiple algorithms to improve user experience such as sun glint reduction, smart denoising, local contrast image enhancement and more.
