A modular, lightweight, gyro-stabilized day/night observation system, the POP300 is utilized for air, land and maritime surveillance missions. The system is in use by international defense and law enforcement agencies, while thousands of POP payloads are in operational service worldwide. This low-maintenance lightweight system (less tahn16 Kg/35 lb) can be operated by a single observer.

POP300 is based on a unique, plug-in slice concept. The slice contains the optronic sensors, which can be easily replaced on-site within minutes without the need for alignment or adjustment. This slice concept also allows for easy upgrades whenever new sensor slices are introduced.

POP300 includes a high performance Focal Plane Array thermal imager (infrared), a color CCD TV camera, automatic video tracker and a laser pointer. An onboard mapping system can also be installed on the Platform, along with a digital recorder and a video data link.
