NERIO-ULR is a state of the art modular Electro-Optical (EO) Surveillance, Target Acquisition (STA) and Reconnaissance system designed to satisfy a broad range of current and emerging customer requirements.
These include:
• Border security and Critical National Infra-Structure protection
• Mobile STA and Reconnaissance
• Coastal surveillance
• Air Defence and Counter-UAS
NERIO-ULR integrates world-class EO sensors as part of a fully flexible payload configuration together with a gyrostabilised director mechanism enabling capability, cost and performance to be optimised according to specific customer needs. Utilising the Horizon Thermal Imaging (TI) camera for provision of a 24hr operational capability, NERIO-ULR combines an 11° to 0.9° zoom field-of-view high definition (HD) TI with a 360° x ±50° system field of regard.
In additional to the Horizon camera, the standard NERIOULR sensor payload configuration includes a high-definition colour day TV camera with a compatible zoom field of view and optional, eye-safe Laser Rangefinder (LRF) to supplement the surveillance capability and enable target identification and geospatial location.
The combination of high definition imaging performance, sightline stability and field coverage enables customers to conduct surveillance acquisition operations from short to very long-range with a single EO system asset.
The modular payload and communication architecture of NERIO-ULR enables the Day TV Camera and LRF solutions to tailored to meet specific customer performance, cost and capability needs.
