MEL long range periscope camera
UK developer of surveillance and security solutions, 683 MEL Secure Systems, has launched a new high power, long range periscope camera for tactical surveillance operations in a wide range of security and maritime applications. Supplied with a precision 1,500mm 100x zoom lens, it will deliver evidential quality facial and numberplate recognition at distances up to one kilometre or view the activities of people at up to three kilometres.      

With Pelco-D telemetry RS485 compatibility, the camera has full PTZ functionality with 3600 pan and 60-degree tilt with continuous rotation. An innovative motor drive system provides precise positioning control with a maximum speed of 350 per second enabling rapid identification of detected events.      

The long range camera can be used in all weather and provides excellent day/night performance even in near-nolight conditions. An advanced IR filter is used to deliver clear images, even in the densest fog, allowing tactical operations to continue without interruption.
