Applications

Perimeter security Fire departments

Border patrol Law enforcement

Rescue services

Containing both a high quality optical day/night camera
module and an FLIR thermal imaging module that sit side­by-side within the camera housing, the compact MIC412
thermal range turns from a high resolution overview
camera into a high performance thermal camera at
the press of a single button on the control keyboard.

A choice of 18x or 36x day/night camera modules are
available with the latest 50mm un-cooled FLIR thermal

imager to provide a range of enhanced viewing options,
such as spectral heat variance and hot and cold spot
highlights with a human detection range of over 780
meters. What’s more, the FLIR thermal imager has
built-in sun protection that allows the unit to 'self-heal'
if inadvertently pointed at the sun.

Application examples

The MIC412 has been used in a variety of mobile and
fixed applications from vehicle mounted surveillance at a
busy London airport and security at sea on a luxury super
yacht to perimeter protection for various critical sites.
Each benefits from the robust nature of the MIC412 and
the sheer power of detection it provides.

The thermal advantage

Thermal cameras do not rely on traditional optics to give
a picture, instead they pick up heat sources and display
the variances on screen. This enables them to give
extremely detailed pictures in demanding conditions
such as fog, rain, pitch-black darkness and even through
smoke and snow.
