Thermal cameras make navigation at night or in fog much safer, enabling invisible objects to be seen with perfect clarity. Buoys, harbour walls, floating debris and other vessels can all be quickly and easily identified.
Irisys security products can also be used for search-and-rescue and security applications. Man-overboard victims can be spotted instantly, as can unwanted visitors.
