Maritime thermal night vision systems

Thermal night vision detect and display images based on tiny differences in heat, not light. No matter how much light is available—from pitch black to moonlight to severe midday glare—we detector capture the thermal energy emitted or reflected by everything, even ice. Cameras then convert changes in temperature into crisp infrared video images, allowing you to see at night and navigate in total darkness.

Navigating oil tankers through icy waters with thermal imaging shipping companies are more and more concerned about the safety of iceclass tankers during sub-zero operation and are looking for equipment that can help detect arctic ice at great enough distances to avoid collisions. Based on recommendations by the oil companies international maritime forum (ocimf), the greek company tms tankers installed m-series Thermal night vision on two oil tankers that operate in arctic waters.

Navigating an oil tanker in open water is very challenging. It becomes even more difficult and dangerous when this needs to be done in ice infested waters. Shipping companies are more and more concerned about the safety of ice-class tankers during sub-zero operation and are looking for equipment that can help to detect ice in arctic waters from a far distance so that collisions can be avoided. This growing concern is reinforced by the oil companies international maritime forum (ocimf) recommendations.
