The Meteksan Retinar OPUS Integrated Radar and Camera Surveillance Suite (Photo Army Recognition)
     
Retinar OPUS is the deep integration of Meteksan's innovative perimeter surveillance radar Retinar PTR-X with day/thermal camera systems. The radar and the long range day/thermal camera pair are placed on a single mast, fixed to a post or on a vehicle, with separate positioners. The camera system supplies visual information about the targets detected by Retinair PTR-X radar (slew-to-cue), enhancing target recognition and identification. The result is a synergic system that is more than the sum of its parts.

The camera and the radar works together to achieve target recognition at unrivaled ranges. The 3D Map Display significantly increases the user's perception of surrounding activity and spatial awareness.

The Opus has many different application areas and can be used for different kind of missions such as:
Critical Infrastructure Protection (i.e. Airports, Habours, Power plants, Pipelines,..)
Countering UAVs: Improved small UAVs detection and tracking with the radar + camera suite
Force Protection: The OPUS can be easily integrated on vehicle with its compact one axis design
Border Protection: Radar + Camera deep integration

The OPUS system detection range are: 6 km for a pedestrian, 12 km for a standard vehicle and 16 km for a large vehicle.
