The airport electro-optical tracking system is developed from important equipment used by advanced countries for maritime search, tracking, law enforcement, and evidence collection.
It features all-weather operation, fast response, wide coverage, long visual range, and stable, clear imaging.
The system can provide the most direct and intuitive evidence required for law enforcement investigations, including photos and video recordings. These records can include time, geographic location, monitoring range, and the full process of an event.
1. Overview of the SU-300 Airport Electro-Optical Tracking System
The airport electro-optical tracking system, also known as the SU-300 series, is a stable, multi-sensor observation, surveillance, and tracking system designed for airborne target tracking and law enforcement evidence collection.
The system integrates multiple sensors, including:
- High-performance infrared thermal imaging camera
- Visible-light camera system
- Semiconductor laser illuminator
- The system pointer is installed at both ends of the airport runway, while the display and control console is installed inside the control room.
- During the daytime, the system uses a high-performance color CCD camera system to observe, monitor, and search for targets.
- At night, the system uses an infrared thermal imaging system to search and observe targets. At the same time, a high-power laser illuminator with a large emission angle can illuminate the target, allowing the high-sensitivity CCD camera system to observe, monitor, and search airborne targets.
- The system can also monitor the aircraft runway surface 24 hours a day to check whether there are foreign objects on the runway.
- If obstacles or metal objects are found on the aircraft runway, airport staff can be quickly assigned to handle the situation.
