SPYNEL sensors are unique passive wide-area surveillance systems with automatic intrusion detection and tracking capabilities for an unlimited number of targets on land, air and sea through all types of inclement weather. These thermal cameras provide outstanding image quality with very high spatial resolution, up to 120 Mpixels, at high rate (up to 2 Hz).
Equipped with CYCLOPE, advanced automatic tracking software, they provide unprecedented real-time security against conventional and asymmetrical threats, at any time from any direction, including hardly detectable targets such as: crawling men, RHIBs, low altitude air targets, UAVs and stealth aircrafts.
SPYNEL and CYCLOPE tandem is the ultimate solution for wide area surveillance, continuous perimeter security, and critical infrastructure protection for FOBs, air and navy bases, ship auto-protection, oil & gas infrastructures, airports, ports, borders and coasts, industrial sites...
Variants:
Spynel-X
The SPYNEL-X is the IRST (Infrared Search&Track) with the best image quality and, by far, the longest detection range on the market.
Spynel-S
The SPYNEL-S captures real time images with a resolution of up to 30 Mpixels and automatically detects all human intrusions over a 12km-diameter area.
Spynel-C
The SPYNEL-C is a proven system, ensuring the security of over 100 sites around the world.
Spynel-U
The SPYNEL-U combines an uncooled, long-wave infrared camera system, with a high resolution 360-degree visible channel, ideal surveillance solution for commercial applications.
Spynel-M
The Spynel-M is a compact, rugged and cost-effective infrared radar for the critical infrastructure protection.
SPYNEL wide area surveillance systems are recognized as a major innovation in security perimeter monitoring. SPYNEL sensors feature MWIR or LWIR focal plane array, exhibiting high performance, even in total darkness.
Rotating continuously at up to 1 revolution/sec for total 360° azimuth coverage, it captures real time images with an impressive resolution of up to 120 Mpix.
As it produces high-resolution images, any type of targets, of any size, will be automatically detected and recognized, making it far more sensitive and convenient than radar.
Monitoring 360 degrees every second, it can catch multiple intrusions coming from multiple directions, unlike PTZ cameras, blind outside their limited field-of-view.
