Runway and taxiway surveillance

Apron: Ground handlers safety

• Two-way radio systems (P25, TETRA, DMR, LTE) and a range of radios including intrinsically safe radios for use in hazardous areas and clear audio with background noise suppression. • Apron surveillance cameras (ultra HD, explosion proof & IR cameras with advanced AI analytics) to detect anomalies. • Body cameras for first-hand perspective integrated with radios (Radio Alert) and in-vehicle video systems. The radios can be paired with our apron surveillance cameras via Radio Alert , so users can quickly respond to alarms. Moreover, our cameras can detect up to 50 people or vehicles in any scene and the high-resolution zooms mean details aren’t missed; the footage aids post-incident forensics. Body cameras (BCs) enable a first-person perspective, and can be paired with our radios too. Technicians can also live stream incidents, equipment failures or repairs and share the information with the supervisor away from the site. The apron is a noisy, busy and hazardous environment, where various below-the-wing services and operations occur concurrently; ground handlers have to navigate a ballet of moving aircraft and vehicles. Many airport accidents happen here, so safety is always a key priority. We have a wide range of intrinsically safe radios , which can be used in and around the aircraft. These deliver excellent audio clarity, with integrated noise and acoustic feedback reduction technology, trained through AI machine learning, so ground workers can always hear and be heard clearly.

Out on the runway or taxiway, the smallest safety or security flaw can have a catastrophic result. The control centre needs a clear view of this area, with AI-analytics to enable quick, informed decisions. We have a strong portfolio of long and mid-range thermal cameras , including infrared (IR) models, coupled with VMS, motor control, telemetry and High Definition Stream Management (HDSM) technology. Offering extreme accuracy, and, on selected cameras, exceptionally fast pan and tilt speeds, 360° continuous rotation, automatic self-position correction and specialist multi-sensor options, our cameras can capture large spatial areas such as the runway and taxiway in high- quality resolution in one panoramic view . Our cameras can provide the highest runway coverage with lower total cost - underpinned by ultra high definition (up to 61 MP ) cameras and dynamic colour adjustment technology enabling pinpoint zoom and clear image for both live view and playback. Our cameras also feature wide dynamic range (WDR) technology to improve image quality and capture details clearly under high-contrast lighting conditions where both dimly and brightly lit areas are presented equally in the same field of view. • A variety of wide lens cameras with ultra HD (up to 10K or 61 MP Avigilon cameras) and WDR for maximum scene coverage. • Pelco Sarix Enhanced 4 series cameras that captures up to 60 frames per second (fps) with reduced motion blur of the fast-moving aircraft. • Fixed long and mid-range cameras which minimise bandwidth and storage consumption through our High Definition Stream Management (HDSM) technology. • Exceptionally fast pan and tilt (PTZ) speeds, 360° continuous rotation coupled with low-light cameras, automated IR illumination and colour adjustment technology with up to 40x zoom.
