Neutrino Ground ISR series is a turnkey solution for integrators developing ground-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) systems. It combines Teledyne FLIR’s world-class mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) camera modules and continuous zoom (CZ) lenses with market-leading image processing and control electronics from InVeo Designs LLC to offer high–performance ISR solutions with a low switching cost. The ITAR-free Neutrino Ground ISR series reduces development risk and time-to-market by providing a factory-integrated MWIR imaging system with a reliable, long-life linear cooler, industry-leading two-year warranty, and industry-adopted imaging electronics.
The Neutrino SX12 ISR1200 is the inaugural Neutrino Ground ISR series model. With a 1280×1024/12 µm resolution focal plane array (FPA), a 120 mm to 1,200mm CZ lens, and advanced image processing, it is the ideal OEM camera module for integration into long-range ground ISR, perimeter surveillance, border surveillance, and counter-UAS (CUAS) systems.
