PRESS RELEASE

Igny, France – June 15th 2026 – At Eurosatory 2026, HGH, a recognized expert in electro-optical and infrared solutions, is celebrating the 20th anniversary of SPYNEL, its flagship panoramic thermal imaging solution dedicated to the protection of sensitive sites, FOB and defense operations worldwide.

For the past two decades, the SPYNEL 360° camera has established itself as a global benchmark and innovation leader in wide-area infrared surveillance, delivering unmatched situational awareness day and night, even in the most challenging environmental conditions. Designed and manufactured in France, SPYNEL combines trusted industrial expertise, cutting-edge innovation, and advanced artificial intelligence capabilities to support defense forces and security operators around the world.

Eurosatory 2026 marks a major milestone in the SPYNEL journey, showcasing the latest innovations in the range. It is an opportunity to look back on 20 years of panoramic infrared technology, from the very first SPYNEL cameras and CYCLOPE software to the newest solutions such as SPYNEL-F for on-the-move applications and GAIA AI for automatic threat identification.

Driven by operational challenges faced by customers worldwide and by close collaboration with industrial, academic, and institutional partners, SPYNEL has continuously evolved to adapt to each mission requirement, while HGH strengthens its growth through the recruitment of leading engineering experts and partnerships with prestigious universities and research institutions.

This anniversary comes at a time of strong acceleration for HGH, driven by growing international demand for SPYNEL solutions in defense and security markets at the heart of today’s geopolitical challenges. Several major agreements have recently been signed, including contracts worth around €50 million with Thales, further reinforcing SPYNEL’s strategic role in next-generation surveillance architectures.
“For 20 years, SPYNEL has supported defense and security forces operating in the world’s most demanding environments. This anniversary reflects not only the innovation, the robustness and performance of our technology, but also the continued trust of our partners and customers worldwide. Through constant innovation and major strategic collaborations, we remain committed to making SPYNEL a leading reference in intelligent panoramic surveillance,” said Vincent Leboucher, HGH CEO.

To celebrate this milestone, HGH invites journalists, partners, clients, and visitors to an exclusive cocktail reception on Wednesday, June 17th at booth E266 during Eurosatory 2026.
