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
- Military—Enhanced clear vision through “brownout” conditions
- Police/surveillance—Aides in CFIT/Obstacle avoidance
