Description

The Driver Thermal Imaging Sensor Unit (DTISU) has been designed to provide Armoured Fighting Vehicle (AFV) crews with a real time 24-hour relaxed vision capability whilst under armour. The DTISU contains a Thermal Imager and a colour CCD sensor, both enclosed in a common armoured housing that is mounted above the vehicle armour.

The unit can be used as a stand-alone sensor or as part of an integrated Indirect Vision System (IVS).
