CONTROP provides some of the most innovative solutions for surveillance and
reconnaissance activities used in the world today. CONTROP's airborne products
are in operational use on many different air vehicles locally and worldwide.
CONTROP products provide solutions for needs in the areas of
Border/perimeter security &
protection (short and long-range) - EO/IR systems which provide
passive, automatic intruder detection, tracking, observation and targeting
in real-time and "near" real-time. These systems can detect, identify and
recognize targets in the air, on land, and at sea.
Vehicle-mounted observation/surveillance/reconnaissance – CONTROP’s
payloads are an excellent tool for SAR, ISR or other critical missions
conducted from a vehicle. These systems can also provide nighttime safety
during “lights-out” operations, and situation awareness while on the move.
Maritime observation/surveillance/reconnaissance – CONTROP’s
outstanding gyro-stabilization allows their EO/IR maritime payloads to be
mast-mounted on patrol boats, RIBs, ships, etc., and the Local AGC and
continuous zoom effectively reduce the typical problems associated with
maritime EO/IR missions.
Aerial observation/surveillance/reconnaissance (helicopters,
aerostats, UAVs, light aircraft) – CONTROP’s EO/IR airborne payloads use
full continuous-zoom lenses, gyro-stabilization and open-architecture
command and control software. The also feature their advanced “local AGC”
for increased resolution while viewing images in bright, hot, cool,
shadowed, or other “hard-to-view” scenarios, not typically viewable when
using thermal imaging.
CONTROP USA has a laboratory facility in Bethesda, Maryland which provides
logistical, maintenance and engineering support for US sales and operations, and
an administrative office in McLean, Virginia. Some of CONTROP’s current programs
include work with NAVSEA, NAVAIR, the Army’s Rapid Equipping Force (REF),
Technical Support Working Group (TSWG), the US Air Force, the DoE, and a number
of universities, defense contractors and commercial companies.
