Panoramic IR

The Panoramic HD IR is Current’s newest payload platform: it combines live panoramic surveillance with long-range intelligence in the ultimate electro-optical & infrared payload.

The panoramic camera array provides live panoramic high-definition infrared views of the situation around the vessel, while the PTZ unit provides a long-range investigation payload in a multisensory configuration.

The system can detect potential threats and alert the crew or AI based controller to investigate and evaluate risk in order to take early action to protect the vessel. 

The long-range PTZ unit allows investigation and confirmation of the threat, while the panoramic camera maintains situational awareness at all times.

The panoramic HD IR can be controlled from the bridge of a ship or through an IP network in a security room or remote location.

DETECTION RANGE
Model FOV Resolution Human Small Boat
Pano 360 HD 360º x 36º 8800 x 900 670 m 2.6 km
Pano 180 HD 180º x 36º 4400 x 900 670 m 2.6 km
Pano 110 HD 110º x 32º 3600 x 900 750 m 2.9 km
Pano 180 SD 180º x 30º 2600 x 420 400 m 1.5 km
Pano 110 SD 180º x 30º 1800 x 420 400 m 1.5 km

Other configurations can be tailored to your operational needs.

Range is calculated using dimensions of human = 1.8 x 0.5 m and small boat = 7 x 2 m.

Theoretical detection calculations based on “Johnson Criteria” to achieve a 50% probability for an observer to detect an object with 2 pixels on target, not taking into consideration signal level, detector sensitivity, atmospheric conditions, and other factors.
