Selex ES showcases enhanced imaging solution with its Horizon SD/HD infrared camera
Selex ES exhibits for the first time at IDEX 2015 in Abu Dhabi its new Infrared camera Horizon HD. The ultra long range capability of Horizon is achieved by using Selex ES’s own Falcon HD detector coupled together with an innovative lens assembly, surpassing previous industry benchmarks. The Horizon HD also uses new proprietary turbulence mitigation technology which minimises the effects of heat turbulence that normally affects thermal imagery over long distances.

The Horizon HD camera is the latest product added to Selex ES’s thermal imaging camera portfolio which has already been proven on operations with UK Forces, equipping vehicles including the Army’s Mastiff, Royal Navy’s Automatic Small Calibre Gun Systems and RAF’s Chinook helicopter as well as the Armed Forces of a range of international customers.

The Horizon Medium Wave Infra-Red (MWIR) thermal imaging camera employs the latest focal plane array technology to meet long-range surveillance and target identification requirements. Utilising a modular Integrated Detector Cooler Assembly, the camera is fitted with either Standard Definition (SD) or High Definition (HD) detector arrays. This design allows for rapid assembly and ease of maintenance. Horizon HD provides a wider Field of View (FoV) for greater Situational Awareness, whilst delivering a narrower IFoV for longer range target identification and engagement. Horizon cameras have been specifically designed with very long life cooling engines of 50,000 hours. This increasesreliability and reduces through- life costs.
