Police / Search & Rescue

ZQ Photoelectric offers various infrarred solutions designed to aid the security forces.

Night-time

ZQ thermal imagers are cameras that make pictures from heat, not visible light. Heat (also called infrared, or thermal, energy) and light are both parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, but a camera that can detect visible light won’t see thermal energy, and vice versa. Thermal cameras detect more than just heat though; they detect tiny differences in heat and display them as shades of grey or with different colors.

Police applications

Officers with thermal imagers can help maintain perimeters when fleeing suspects are confined within a small area. Since the thermal imager emits no beams of energy, it will not alert the suspect that the perimeter is monitored, which may lead him to cross the line and be more easily apprehended.

Search and Rescue

Whether it is a lost child or a disoriented elderly adult, a victim can be located more quickly and at less risk with the assistance of a thermal imager. A thermal imager can overcome the normal challenges of low-light situations as well as environmental conditions, such as fog or smoke. Being able to detect a human at 200 meters or more.
