About Sea MINI POP
The Sea MiniPOP is an 8 inches’ payload for day/night observation systems built for maritime applications. The system is designed to meet harsh environmental conditions such as shock, vibration from waves, and extreme temperatures. The payload provides real-time imaging, automatic video tracking, and precise target geo-location capabilities that can be used as a stand-alone EO/IR observation system on small/medium sizes vessels or as a part of Naval RCWS.
The Sea MiniPOP is a dual-axis, gyro-stabilized payload designed as a single Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) carrying up to four sensors and based on an open architecture. The basic configuration includes a continuous zoom color day camera and a thermal imaging camera. A laser pointer, eye-safe laser range finder and an automatic tracker can be incorporated for enhanced capabilities and functionality.
The Sea MiniPOP can be easily connected and integrated to any C4I or be operated with IAI’s control system.
