360° Thermal Vision

Panoblu IR delivers continuous 360° thermal infrared imaging from a single mast-mounted unit. Up to 14 LWIR sensors cover the full horizon, providing night watch capability, man overboard detection and perimeter surveillance without a single moving part.

In complete darkness, dense fog or heavy smoke, the Panoblu IR camera unit sees where visible light cameras cannot. The full 360° thermal view streams live to the bridge, to any connected device, and is archived with GPS position for every second underway.

Range Awareness Display

Distance to Everything.
Even in Darkness.

RAD overlays real-time distance measurements across the full 360° thermal panorama. Every vessel, every obstacle, every channel marker: range calculated continuously, night or day, fog or clear.

Continuous Calculation

Range updates across every bearing in real time, day and night, without manual targeting.

Works in Zero Visibility

Thermal imaging means RAD functions in fog, smoke and complete darkness when you need it most.

Recorded with the Image

Distance data archived alongside every frame of the thermal voyage record.
