FEATURES
NAVIGATION MODE
Camera heading is related to the boat heading, is oriented to the bow, and turns with the boat. NB! This mode is integrated with the Instant Look feature. While the camera is keeping its orientation to the vessel bow, you can quickly and efficiently take a look to the right or left just by moving the joystick in this direction. When the joystick is released, the camera moves back to the center position.
INSTANT LOOK
While the camera is keeping its orientation to the vessel bow, you can quickly and easily take a look to the right or left just by moving the joystick in this direction. When the joystick is released, the camera moves back to the center position. Movements are fast, precise, and immediate.
PAN / TILT
The camera pan and tilt are controlled by a proportional joystick. Pan coverage is 360° continuous, and tilt angle coverage is from -30°degrees to +30°degrees. To maximize operational comfort, users can choose a portable wireless handheld control unit in addition to a stationary installation.
PERFECT STABILIZATION
The camera is gyro-stabilized using new technology, making stabilization immediate and perfect even on small vessels and extremely harsh conditions. The system uses gyroscopes + inertial sensors + magnetometer + multicore processor to ensure that even the smallest movements are compensated.
RUGGED CONSTRUCTION
The camera’s unique design covers all moving parts to ensure its perfect function even in harsh conditions. The camera is not affected by wind, water, snow, ice, dust, and sandstorms. There are no moving parts outside of the camera dome to eliminate wearing and any possible jam due to ice, snow, dust, or sand. Camera germanium crystal protective window is coated by patented DLG (diamond-like-glass) technology to protect against hard abrasive particles and make it extra durable even in rough conditions.
The camera keeps its predefined (by the operator) orientation and heading, no matter how the boat turns and moves. This can be useful in MOB and SAR situations to ensure that you will never lose once found object.
With the press of a button, the camera turns its direction automatically to the front. The camera knows the heading of the boat, so it can always automatically adjust its direction to ensure that the boat pilot can see the front, not losing time to find the right heading.

To maximize camera view coverage, panning is 360° continuous in all directions. Panning speed is proportional to the joystick position.

WIRELESS INSTALLATION
In addition to the standard installation, this camera can be installed and controlled without wiring. Control and receiving the video feed can be both wireless. The in-built antennas provide a control and video feed range of up to 3 km, which can be increased with the addition of external antennas.
ONLINE SUPPORT
Strixmarine cameras are worldwide online supported via internet connection for software updates, parameter settings, configuration adjustments, and remote troubleshooting.
