The Axsys EOSS 1000 EO/IR is an extreme long-range infrared camera system capable of resolving man-sized targets at over 20 kilometers.

The EOSS 1000 is ideal for mobile and stationary surveillance, reconnaissance, and targeting in ground- and marine-based defense and homeland security applications where maximum detection distance is required. This powerful infrared camera is deployed around the world protecting our forces on the ground and those who serve at sea, ensuring the safety of our borders, and combating the illegal trafficking of drugs.

The EOSS 1000 operates in the 3-5μm spectral range and incorporates cooled photodetector technology in 320 x 246 30μm pitch focal plane array or 640 x 512 15μm pitch focal plane array (EOSS 1000-S).
