High definition (HD) optronic payloads for manned aircraft and unmanned air systems (UAS) are becoming a baseline, like HD TV screens at home.
Technology can satisfy the appetite of its users for more detailed images, even for the battlefield.
The UAS can now see a lot better and that makes them an even more crucial platform for the battlefield.
Here is some proof. The TAMAM Division of Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) has launched a new line of truly HD day and night stabilised optronic payloads using a 1280x1024 pixel detector for the thermal camera and a 1920x1080 detector for the day camera in the MOSP3000-HD and the POP300D-HD.
TAMAM also introduced the new MiniPOP-HD using a 1920x1080 detector for the day camera.
The company says that the new systems also include advanced video image processing and compression features that enable the FHDTV to be adapted to any downlink system.
MOSP3000-HD is a 31kg (68lb), one-LRU multi-sensor highly stabilised EO/IR payload equipped with a full HD 1920x1080 detector for colour day camera (FHDTV), a HD 1280x1024 detector for the thermal camera with a x30 optical zoom and an option for laser designation, laser rangefinder and laser pointer.
POP300D-HD is a 20kg, one-LRU multi-sensor stabilised EO/IR payload equipped with a Full HD 1920x1080 detector for the colour day camera, a HD 1280x1024 detector for the thermal camera and laser designation, laser rangefinder and laser pointer.
MiniPOP-HD is a 6.5-9kg (configuration dependent) compact, one-LRU multi-sensor stabilised EO/IR payload equipped with a full HD 1920x1080 detector for the colour day camera, a 640x480 thermal camera, and an option for laser rangefinder, laser pointer and laser designator.
Bringing HD to real-time intelligence gathering in combat is no less than a revolution. Forget about pixellated and blurred images. From now on, in most cases, you get a very sharp image that allows the commander to see the finest details in the area of interest.
The combat scenery has become high definition and the developers say that they have some more "quantum leaps" in their labs.
