The Tarsier Camera Unit MK2, is currently used in UK and Canadian civilian airports as well as on USA military airbases to detect runway FOD. Tarsier’s performance accuracy can pinpoints debris location in precise range and bearing. Unlike camera-only systems, Tarsier continues to provide timely and accurate debris detection in low light conditions especially complete darkness and adverse weather including snow, sandstorms and dense fog.
Advanced digital signal processing accurately identifies and confirms debris eliminating false alarms. The system has been proven to detect metal, plastic, rubber, glass and organic matter. Status information is relayed to airport operators through a single intuitive graphical display. Live video feeds from the powerful MIL-SPEC day and night camera are automatically cued to allow object verification before personnel are dispatched to remove debris. A high resolution night camera combined with a near infrared illuminator tuned to the lens system far exceeds any competing night vision system.
