Ballistic range camera makes North American debut
A
Specialised Imaging product story

Sep 21, 2005
The rigid all-metal IP54 rated construction of the compact SIR2 makes it ideally suited to the typically harsh environment of the military test range.
Specialised Imaging has chosen the forthcoming Aeroballistic Range Association meeting (in Houston, Texas) and International Ballistics Symposium (Vancouver, Canada) to mark, in association with exclusive distributor Photosonics, the North American public debut of its latest advances in ballistic range camera technology.
Drawing on many years experience of ultra-high-speed camera technology and knowledge of modern generation weaponry - Specialised Imaging has added several new products to its family of range cameras during 2005.
Visitors to the ARA and IBS meetings will be able to review the SIR2 - a unique high performance, high-speed camera that offers true double imaging capability.
The rigid all-metal IP54 rated construction of the compact SIR2 makes it ideally suited to the typically harsh environment of the military test range.
The imaging engine of the SIR2 has been designed to offer the ultimate in resolution, timing accuracy, and measurement capabilities.
The 11Mpixel images provide more detail than any other high-speed camera in its class.
The unique ability to acquire two full resolution images provides valuable information on displacement and velocity for ballistics, detonics and impact studies.
For ballisticians and engineers looking for a robust, reliable and highly affordable camera the SIR ballistic range camera will also be on display.
Available in two versions - a high gain system for use in low-light applications and a high resolution variant - the SIR ballistic range camera provides exceptional image quality, dynamic range and optical sensitivity whatever the application.
With exposure times down to 20ns the SIR ballistic range camera allows the fastest projectiles to be captured and analysed either as single or up to 16 independently controlled superimposed images.
Technical experts will be available at both meetings to update visitors on the ongoing development of a new high performance trajectory tracker system.
