Raytheon Nightsight ProtectIR 4000B
(Building/Vehicle Mounted Infrared Camera)

Meeting the challenge that darkness presents for law enforcement, marine, and security applications is the Raytheon Nightsight ProtectIR 4000B.

The Raytheon ProtectIR 4000B combines an infrared camera with a remotely controlled pan-and-tilt platform.

The system is designed to withstand the rigors of mobile operation and outdoor environments, and can be mounted on a vehicle, building, or other structure. The infrared image is displayed on a video monitor that is mounted, along with the remote control unit, out of the elements inside the vehicle or building.

The camera utilizes image processing to create thermal images with improved contrast, resulting in better feature definition, and sharper, clearer thermal pictures.
