Technologies providing information to the Border Patrol personnel need to address a very specific set of challenges: surveillance equipment must be able to endure consistent exposure to harsh environments in remote locations. Our panoramic security solution based on SPYNEL is a Border Surveillance system used worldwide, addressing those challenges.
All over the world, the potential for danger at borders is a real concern; high risk of terrorism, drug or human trafficking… If actionable intelligence needs to be provided to patrols in the field, these technologies have to address a very specific set of challenges: Surveillance equipment must be designed to endure exposure to harsh environments in remote locations.
The Spynel 360° infrared security systems have proven their effectiveness for border security applications. Spynel IR sensors use a 24/7 rotating head to produce 360° images and detect & track intrusions in real time: Spynel cameras operate like “radars with eyes.”, solving the deficiencies of light-based camera monitoring. On top of that, the Spynel mid or long wave infrared sensors allow to detect a human at up to 8km in total darkness and adverse weather (extreme heat, snow, cloud dusts, etc.).
Did you know ? … Two or three Spynel cameras are enough to cover a whole perimeter where dozens of PTZ infrared cameras would traditionally be needed!
Border surveillance requires tailored solutions for each situation, each type of terrain, each type of threat. Given the dynamic nature of cross border threats, border patrols have developed a mobile strategy surveillance, and systems must be quickly operational, and easy to deploy on a mast or at the back of a vehicle.
SPYNEL 360 thermal solution can be mounted on a vehicle to provide situational awareness, while on the move or stationary. Integrated with touch screen displays, Spynel can effectively and efficiently operate in small, confined areas, 24/7, whatever the weather.
