As the modern day battlefield becomes increasingly dependent upon electronics, the requirement for digital imaging capabilities is becoming an integral part of many weapon systems. This is true for a whole range of modern defense equipment from helmet mounted cameras for infantry to sophisticated arrays of imaging equipment on large platforms such as aircraft and submarines. Indeed, a new type of platform has become the quintessential application of digital imaging in defense: the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

However, few of these applications share common requirements: from helmet mounted systems requiring medium resolution at full video rates in as small a package as possible to UAV mounted cameras which, for high altitude operation, will require extremely high resolution with only moderate frame rates.

Due to this wide range of applications and routine requirement for customized housings and interfaces we do not present any standard products for defense applications here (although the full selection of Narragansett Imaging's standard camera platforms can be found on the Digital Camera Modules page). However, please look through our pages on custom development of digital camera modules to better understand Narragansett Imaging's capabilities.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss your customized camera requirement then please contact Narragansett Imaging or your nearest representative.

Custom Development. As well as the standard camera designs listed above, Narragansett Imaging also develops custom cameras with alternative sensor types, interfaces or mechanical dimensions.
