Premium Long Range Thermal Vision
-
Superior Short and Long Range Vision
Cooled thermal core technology and continuous optical zoom enables early detection of vessels, navigation aids, and key landmarks.
-
Exceptional Target Awareness
Automatic video tracking keeps the M500 locked onto visual targets, while radar integration directs it to track select radar targets.
-
Enhanced Clarity
The 14× optical thermal zoom can detect the heat signature of vessels up to ~8.3 nm / 15.4 km away.
The Power of High Contrast Cooled Thermal Imagery
The M500's cooled thermal core is capable of producing images with enhanced detail and extensive ranges. Cooled thermal technology has been utilized by Coast Guard and Navy vessels around the world for decades, and now this military-grade technology offers government and commercial vessels alike unparralleled viewing capacity.
