Each Viseum IMC Thermal Security Camera has multiple surveillance cameras built inside a single Viseum IMC camera unit for complete long range panoramic coverage in any direction up to 360°. For each long range thermal camera deployment the required number of fixed thermal security cameras are put into each IMC camera unit and directed at the zone areas to be automatically protected.

Feature Viseum Thermal/Optical Competitor Comments
Export Licence status Full Frame rate with less restricted commerce
licence, 9Hz NLR
Full frame rate Export licence
controlled. 8.3 HZ option available
Full frame rate is the preferred solution. (Having a 8.3 Hz version 640 x 480 is like
having a rev limiter on a racing car).
Size 181 (H) x 419 (W) x 237 (D) (mm) 325 (H) x 467 (W) x 347 (D) (mm)
Viseum Thermal/Optical is Low Profile smallest size, blends in better, not so obtrusive,
easier to install.
Weight 11.3 Kg 20 Kg Viseum Thermal/Optical is 8.7 Kg lighter and therefore easier for mounting, less
Infrastructure needed. Viseum Thermal/Optical is suitable to many more applications.
Housing / enclosures Fully marinised as Standard Does not state
Viseum Thermal/Optical is treated for Marinised enviroments as standard in colour
white.
Lens coating Meets Mil Specs Does not state
Viseum Thermal/Optical as HCC outer optic and meets Mil standards, this is very
important in Marine environments.
Colours White, Tan or Black White only Competitor being only available in white limits its applications. Viseum Optical/Thermal
suitable to many more applications. This can be a tender differentiator.
Sealing PTZ IP67 IP66
Viseum Thermal/Optical is IP67 and is the much better option and for Marine / port
environments.
Sealing of Pods IP67, PTZ. IP67 Dry Nitrogen purged pods IP66 Dry Nitrogen purged pods gives Viseum Optical/Thermal better sealing integrity.
Cable connection /
Mounting
Via sealed Mil connector access underneath
the unit, mating cable can be supplied
Via cable gland Viseum Thermal/Optical mil connector ensures complete sealing, plus when mounted
will not be not exposed to the elements. The cable glands on the Competitor is a
significant weak point, and will not survive as long in the field as Viseum
Thermal/Optical.
Mounting By 4" PCD, will hole for Mil connector. Flat
surface option.
Flat surface mounted Viseum Thermal/Optical very well suited to going on masts, side wall mounts, and
Viseum tactical tripods. If a flat surface mount is required we have a costed option.
Competitor flat surface mounted only, limiting applications.
Voltage input 10 - 30 VDC 21 - 30 VAC, 21 - 30 VDC Competitor has limited voltage input range limiting its applications.
Power Consumption 12 W nominal, 175W with all heaters 65 W nominal, 195 W with heaters Viseum Thermal/Optical has a lower power consumption.
Video Output NTSC or PAL NTSC or PAL The same.

Lens 100mm F/1.0 Motorized
100mm F/1.6 Athermalised, focus
free Viseum Thermal/Optical has the lowest F/# available for this size of lens,
maximising the amount of energy transmitted to the detector. This equates to our
Thermal imager being more sensitive thus providing better image quality and
longer range performance. Also with the lens being motorised it allows the user to
sharply focus in any potential target from 10m to infinity.
Minimum focus distance 10m 90m

Front element defroster Yes Not stated
This is needed to enable frost to be eliminated form the front lens element,
Competitor does not have this.

Competitor does X2 and X4 digital zoom.
Polarity Yes Yes Standard excellent features.
Image contrast
Enhancement ?
Yes two Image Contrast Enhancements Yes This is an edge enhancement feature that Competitor do called DDE, that can be
useful in some scenarios. Viseum has a sophisticated AGC and two levels of Image
Contrast Enhancement, for the greatest image in all scene scenarios
Visible Camera
Type Sony FCB-EX Sony FCB-EX The same good visible camera.
Service
Exchangeabe parts Yes, PODS Exchangeable cassettes Viseum Thermal/Optical PODS can be taken off and exchanged in the field, so a
good seal is always maintained. Competitor replaces the cassette they call in inside
the housing, and when put back together only maintains IP66. Plus there may be a
licencing implication on the Competitor.
Warranty 2nd years as Standard, option 3 and 4 year 2 years as standard
Viseum Thermal/Optical has two years warranty as standard and can offer a costed
3rd and 4th year and year warranty. Competitor has 2 years as standard.

14. Viseum Thermal/Optical vs. Next Best Competitor.

15. Viseum Thermal/Optical is:

• Fully Marinized for sea weathering conditions as standard.
• Better sealed (IP67), and PODS Dry Nitrogen Purged.
• Single Mil I/O connector.
• Longevity – Our extended 4 year warranty option, our quality specifications, and a
visual inspection gives significant confidence of the life expectancy of the Viseum
Thermal/Optical in comparison to any competition.
• Faster panning at up to 100°/ sec, and faster tilting up to 60°/ sec.
• Has longer range detection (100mm F/1.0 motorized lens allowing for superior image &
Longest thermal range in its class 3.5km man detection (3 pixels)) and superior image
quality including two Image Contrast Enhancement algorithms.
