This new generation of EVS is a valuable
flight tool that helps pilots see better and that improves their
margins of safety.
The Max-Viz EVS-1000 is particularly well-suited for helicopters,
enabling pilots to see terrain and other potential obstacles through
dust, rain, snow, haze, smoke and total darkness.
Using a patented combination of infrared
sensors and signal processing, this enhanced vision system relays
real-time video images from a small 2.5-lb. sensor head mounted
on the helicopter nose, belly or landing skids to the cockpit on
any video-capable head-down display (HDD).
Because the EVS-1000 does not use bulky
mechanical cryogenics to cool the infrared sensors, the patented
uncooled system is the smallest, lightest, most reliable and affordable
system available today. It’s truly revolutionary and available
for operation:
- Heavy-lift operations—increases
efficiencies in operations such as logging and construction
- EMS—improves
safety and efficiency when lives are on the line
- Search and rescue—enhances
operational readiness and helps identify subjects
- Firefighting—has
demonstrated performance in smoke
- Executive/VIP transport—helps
important passengers arrive on time with greater safety assurance
- Offshore—
improves safety of servicing offshore rigs
