See further while not compromising footprint or weight. A 15µm-pitch InSb focal plane array provides a 640×512 image that leverages the superior optical quality of the highly tuned athermalized and parfocal zoom lenses ranging from 28.4-0.8° HFOV. A powerful processing engine provides electronic image stabilization, digital zoom, automatic/manual gain control, adaptive contrast control (CLAHE/LAP), target tracking and detection, stock and user-defined LUTs, and 32GB of onboard video/still storage. The control and video interface offers digital (CameraLink) and analog video as well as an H.264-encoded IP stream. Command over serial and/or Ethernet using connection interfaces standardized across the wide Ventus™ and Vinden LR™ product lines.

Two lens options (19-275mm, 48-700mm) provide a uniquely cost-effective solution for applications such as security and surveillance, fixed monitoring, defense, manned/unmanned ground and airborne platforms, and many more. Sierra-Olympia Technologies’ expert support in documentation and staff make the integration of Ventus products a nearly drop-in experience. The Ventus cameras are also easily exportable under US Commerce regulations.
