| In partnership with Photonsis, Bertin chose to launch it’s FusionSight® at Eurosatory 2016. It is the world’s first device that offers the smart colour fusion of images. The first being a colour image (powered by a Photonsis sensor), providing a colour image in low light conditions without illumination. The second image is recorded by a high resolution thermal imaging sensor. The embedded real-time image processor automatically selects key information from each sensor and displays it as a combined/fused image, which can be recorded as a digital file. This means that the usual limitations of each sensor is overcome by the other. The thermal sensor can see through smokescreen and fog, while the other sensor can see through windows with sufficient resolution to identify targets/individuals. With FusionSight® there is no need for two separate devices, which has benefits for logistics and running costs. The Photonsis sensor is their Kameleon Colour Image Sensor, a CMOS sensor similar to that in mobile phones. It cannot see colours itself, but a patented innovation allows two raw images and a reconstruction algorithm to reproduce the final image in colour and in real-time. |
