CONTROP Precision Technologies Ltd is a major supplier of quality surveillance systems for homeland security, protection and surveillance for military and para military applications worldwide, including border control, coastal security, law enforcement and other homeland security programmes.
CONTROP's DSP-1 has several unique features setting it apart from other payloads on the market. The continuous FLIR zoom lens makes this payload so "user friendly" that once tried, the Operators do not want to go back to the incremental FLIR zoom known in other paylaods. In addition, the improved image enhancement algorithms enable a high quality image even in situations with heavy smoke and fires, as was proven during recent operational use.
The DSP-1 has been installed and flies on many different aircraft, including the Mi-17, Eurcopter Panther AS565 and Puma helicopters. In addition, it has been installed on UAVs including the IAI Scout, Searcher and Aeronautics Aerostar and fixed wing aircraft as well. It has recently been flown on a small aerostat proving that this payload is not only superb in image quality, but lightweight enough to fly on a small balloon too!
The DSP-1, the UAV payload which has been operational 24/7 with the Israel MOD (as well as other countries) and is continually upgraded to meet operational requirements. |
