Comparison of IR Illumination to Thermal Imaging:

Both types of cameras allow you to see in the dark, but the Thermal Imaging cameras utilize the heat energy radiating from the object viewed, while the Infrared or IR cameras utilizes an IR illuminator.

The Thermal Imaging system can detect an object further away, and operate through fog and dust, but the IR camera system provides much better resolution and gray scale making it possible to identify a person's face or license plate number.

The Optical IR PTZ system utilizes a unique fully zoomable Continuous Wave Laser Illumination system rather than a fixed lens system provided by the thermal imaging systems. This patent pending capability makes it much easier to focus on a remote target.

Definitions Used in Thermal Imaging versus Optical IR night vision Systems

Optical and thermal camera systems use different definitions of performance.

Detection

Thermal imaging cameras typically use the Johnson Criteria to determine its' “detection” capability. The Johnson Criteria, used by thermal imaging manufacturers, indicates that 1.5 to 7 vertical pixels are needed to provide “detection”.

Optical systems usually state that they need at least 10 pixels for detection.

Recognition

In the thermal imaging parlance, recognition is defined by whether an object can be discerned. For instance, is the target a tank, building, person, etc. Thermal Imaging cameras indicate that somewhere between 8 and 10 pixels are needed to make this determination.

In the optical camera world, espcially at the longest range of the optics we need more pixels for recognition. The specifications for the optical systems use a much more conservative >30 pixels for recognition.

Identification

There is some confusion about this category. Most Thermal Imaging companies do not even discuss this criteria, as it is difficult to hit this performance level at distance ranges. In thermal imaging parlance this is defined as a specific object being discerned, such as the object is friend or foe, or that the object is a T-72 tank or M1-Abrams. The thermal Imaging guide indicates that only about 11 to 16 pixels are required.

In the optical world, identification means that you can identify a person's face or license plate number. We define this as at least 50 - 80 pixels across the face for the optical system.

The IP-IRPTZ long range IR PTZ system includes an integrated synchronized laser illuminator with a range of up to 3 miles at night. During the day, the up to 1550 mm lens provides an extraordinary view from 5 mile away.
