HOLO-IR Infrared Scene Projection
The HOLO-IR is a portable low-power and large format scene projector device that can create realistic and high-resolution infrared (IR) images that appear 3-dimensional and holographic in any environment. It uses proprietary phosphor-converted LEDs that can be customized to a wide range of night vision goggles (NVGs) and systems (Gen 1, Gen 2, Gen 3) while delivering high levels of IR brightness visible to both high-end and low-end IR detectors, including low-cost night vision CMOS CCTV security cameras. Scene projector image size can vary from as small as few inches up to virtually any life-size image and video by combining and synchronizing several units together.
Holographic Infrared Scene Projection
The HOLO-IR scene projection technology is ideal for training in the use of NVGs and for testing a wide range of infrared sensor, focal plane arrays, and detection technologies in the NIR/SWIR spectral range. Unlike traditional immersive infrared simulators and scene projectors that involve simulating a complete scenery in the IR, the holographic nature and portability of the HOLO-IR system enables placement into a given environment in order to utilize the natural IR background present. This helps create a more realistic infrared imagery and scenery that blends with the constantly changing background in real-time.
