Features include a
continuous 360° Pan & Tilt with 22X optical Zoom and 480 lines
Color Resolution, 570 Black & White, with 1/.06 lux. Designed to be
installed on the bottom of the aircraft fuselage, the camera is housed
in a patented environmental heated enclosure, nitrogen purged and hermetically
sealed with a small 4.75” transparent dome. Scans, Patrols, Motion
Detector and Alarms plus 60 programmable presets are available.
In its most basic
mode, the camera will automatically sequence through presets for Turn-On,
Taxi, Take-Off, Cruise (scan?), Approach and Taxi. Passengers may at anytime
adjust Pan, Tilt, Zoom as they wish. The next time there is an event,
i.e. Take-Off, Landing etc., the camera will return to the programmed
preset. Manual control of the camera is via RS485 and may be accomplished
simply through a PALM PILOT. If touch screens exist in
the cabin they may also be utilized, as AVS will provide their DOME Camera
Command Protocol to all touch screen manufacturers.
As a security
camera, the AVS DOME Camera will accept four alarms IN (e.g.
from motion detectors) sending it to presets. These presets may be programmed
with its internal camera Motion Detector ON providing
two alarms OUT, if motion is detected. Additionally, the AVS DOME Camera
will automatically become Black & White in the dark with increased
light (.06 lux) and IR sensitivity.
The AVS Dome
Camera Computer provides simultaneous dual touch
screen capability; a touch screen for the cabin and one
for the cockpit. The passenger’s touch screen provides a video PIP
for viewing and camera Pan, Tilt & Zoom controls. The pilot’s
touch screen has the same video PIP for viewing and features a graphic
presentation of the aircraft with presets for the landing
gears, engines, APU, etc. Also, up to 16 additional video inputs may be
selected e.g. tail, winglets or galley cameras.
A computer upgrade
to include ARINC 429 capability and AVS’s patented MapTrac®
software will allow the AVS DOME Camera to automatically track
points of interest (POI) on the ground, e.g. Grand Canyon,
Golden Gate Bridge, towns, airports, etc. This tracking is both roll and
pitch stabilized. POIs may be automatically or manually selected and may
come from an internal or remote database.
MapTrac® software
includes world, country and local Moving Maps
and a Flight Data Page. A client’s Logo
and a full motion, cockpit selectable Cabin Briefing
may be added. A CD player is included for software upgrades. |
