Cleveland Ohio source for Vehicle Night Vision FLIR Camera Integrations
Access 1 Alarm and Audio offers several solutions for night vision for your vehicle. From standalone camera systems that have a separate display to integrating the image on your navigation screen we have a solution.
Our most common camera is the FLIR thermal imaging system, bringing you the same technology to your vehicle as our military and Law Enforcement agencies utilize, such as aerial drones and stealth aircraft to vehicle mounted units on the HUMVEE’s and police SWAT vehicles. These units are designed to provide the user the ability to see in the night when there is no or limited lighting conditions.
Other options is the use of an infrared camera, however the optics are nowhere as near the quality of the FLIR thermal imaging camera and is susceptible to wash out from oncoming lights. Most infrared cameras need a separate infrared illuminator to provide light for the camera to operate whereas the FLIR camera does not.
