Local Situational Awareness


By mounting an array of cameras on the chassis of armoured personnel carriers, tanks or other tracked-vehicles, an unobstructed view over the near surroundings of the vehicle can be maintained with the hatches closed, providing safety for the entire vehicle crew and the material.
The CITADEL series of situational awareness cameras can be used for driver vision and for obtaining an all round view for the commander.
Such a solution, togther with complementary sensors, consitutes the first line of a well designed Survivability Concept.

The CST situational awareness cameras are available in two basic configurations:

  • Citadel Panoramic camera system (dual camera unit), providing a full 170° Field-of-View   Built-in graphics overlay for distance markers - Ideal for stand-alone use.
  • Citadel Compact and Versatile: Single camera units, factory configured for  Field-of View from 47° up to 100° - For use with on-vehicle video processing unit.

Oher configurations can be provided as custom designs.

All CITADEL cameras are designed to deliver high-performance images, even under the harshest shock and vibration conditions of metal track or wheeled vehicles, and in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +70°C.
