SOLUTIONS FOR

THE MARKETPLACE

PROVIDING THE INTELLIGENT NODE

With more than thirty years of experience supplying positioning systems for high-stakes video security systems, Moog QuickSet has unique perspectives and experience with increasingly IT-centric architectures. n Incorporates Various Sensors on a Pan/Tilt System n Embeds Processing & Software tasks at the source

To simplify command protocol design, the node handles all of the distinct sensor interfaces, platform dynamics, pointing automation and camera lens control. Using COTS Pan & Tilt platforms with embedded microprocessors and auxiliary motor drivers, it is possible to control multiple dissimilar devices entirely through commands implemented at the node. Stored in the node memory are various preset pointing coordinates and touring routines that control automated motion functions when operating without operator control. The systems can also be commanded to respond to specific intrusion alarms. Moog QuickSet products provide several tangible benefits:

n Reduce Network Bandwidth Requirements n Increase Real-Time System Performance & Supports n Reduce System Control Software Complexity n Lower Lifetime Expense & Greater Reliability

TYPICAL PAYLOADS n Visible Light Cameras n Cooled or Un-Cooled Infrared Cameras n Automatic Zoom/ Focus Controls n Microwave Radar n Illuminators n Laser Range Finders n Global Positioning Devices
