The PhotoTelesis® Modular
Sensor Assembly™ (MSA) is the eye of the Light Weight Video Reconnaissance
System (LVRS) out station. Comprised of the Control Module, Day Channel, and
Night Channel, the MSA is a ruggedized video sensor that can be configured
for day or night operation via interchangeable day and night channels.
The
Control Module is the heart of the system and contains the User Interface,
color viewfinder, control buttons, battery compartment, and video frame
averaging circuit. The Day Channel has an 26X optical zoom, and can provide
vehicle recognition at 1500 meters. The Night Channel utilizes frame
averaging and a Gen III image intensifier.
The MSA
is typically powered by a BA-5800 battery, which lasts 10 hours using a 50
percent duty cycle. It also accepts
5-15 VDC through the external connector.
The
MSA can be used as a stand alone device or it can be attached to the Military
MicroRIT™ and remotely capture images.
