Private Sector firm Tonbo Imaging has been awarded a contract by Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) for the delivery of ELPEOS Fire Control System that will be delivered to the Chennai unit of Bharat Electronics Limited for the integration on the 118 Arjun Mk1A Main Battle Tank ordered by the Indian Army.
ELPEOS is a multi sensor electro-optical payload designed for easy integration in remote controlled weapon stations and long range surveillance and reconnaissance. It features a high resolution cooled MWIR imager, a color CCD camera, and a Laser Range Finder and an integrated ballistic computer. It optionally can include a GPS and a Digital Magnetic Compass with inclinometer for target acquisition and geo referencing.
IR and Day imagers are with continuous optical zoom optics and are optically, mechanically and digitally aligned to high precision for demanding applications. The sensors also have preset matched FOVs through out the zoom range increasing situational awareness.
It also features inbuilt electronic video stabilisation and video target tracking capability. It optionally can incorporate Tonbo’s state of the art Sensor FUSION technology that intelligently fuses the videos from IR and Day cameras in real time, combining critical spectral information from IR with the Visible day camera further enhancing the situational awareness.
Designed to survive shock of upto 0.50caliber (12.7mm) weapons and qualified as per MIL-STD-810G / 461F. It is an ideal solution for on the move or fixed remote controlled weapon stations for land and naval applications.
It has been field tested on 12.7mm land and naval stabilised remote controlled weapon station (SRCG).
