PIVOT
is a stand alone surveillance system which allows to easily
monitor a large area. When connected to PILARw,
PIVOT turret is immediately cued in the shot origin direction,
providing in real-time a picture of the shooter. PIVOT greatly
enhances observation, target acquisition and threat identification
capabilities, making it ideal for a variety of applications
and environments, including infantry units, Special Forces,
forward observers, reconnaissance patrols, peacekeeping forces,
security forces and surveillance of sensitive sites.
The PIVOT allows automatic or manual scanning of a user-defined
potential threat area to have capacities to survey the potential
threat area. In case of a shot detection by the GDS, the PIVOT
Turret can be automatically cued to the localized position and
then manually scanned and zoomed to perform a detailed investigation
of the area.
Intuitive and easy to use, PIVOT is operated through user-friendly
menus and controls. The PIVOT system is passive, does not require
full time attention from the user and captures images day and
night, in all kinds of weather. For recording, PIVOT is capable
of feeding images into a Digital Video Cassette Recorder and
capturing video on an external PC (optional).
