DarkMesh Camera System – Digital

DarkMesh Camera System - Digital

DarkMesh is a powerful, extended-range recognition and inspection system that transmits real-time video and audio of the dog.
Easily receive video/audio at your control station from up to 450 meters away. The system mounts to the K9 harness using the Molle and Velcro fasteners.
Two-way audio allows the operator to command and listen to the dog and/or suspect using the Push to Talk feature.

The optronic module designed for our DarkFighter K9 helmet combines a color camera for low light conditions (black and white on demand) and an infrared thermal imager to detect heat signatures.
The checkpoint allows simultaneous camera viewing and video recording for evidence collection and training purposes.
Reliable connectivity when your team needs it most. Your missions take you through cities, tunnels and ships.

The DarkMesh radio thrives in these complex RF environments, where the 2×2 MIMO technology uses reflections from the obstacles to move your data even faster.
The mesh network delivers your data around the obstacles, maximizing your network, performance and mobility.

The handler's device is based on a renowned device, in the form of a smartphone in a reinforced case with the addition of physical buttons on top of the touchscreen interface.
This mobility allows you to carry the control station in your tactical kit, on your plate carrier vest, on your wrist or in your hands
