The HECATE K9 camera is the first to offer daylight, infrared and thermal images transmitted in real time back to the dog handler. Live video/audio is received up to 300 metres distance urban. A talkback feature provides the ability to relay commands in addition to listening via a front facing loudspeaker and microphone. Key is the FLIR® thermal imaging camera (which represents a giant leap forward in thermal imaging performance) with dramatic reduction in size and weight. This allows the HECATE camera to operate in zero light by detecting heat images normally invisible to the eye.

Integrated daylight/infrared cameras are supported by efficient white light and IR light LED illumination allowing operation in ALL lighting conditions. The unique spring loaded anti-snag camera body is designed for stability aiding maneuverability through obstacles and small spaces. The ruggedised HECATE handheld receiver features a 7 inch sunlight readable display for easy viewing, an internal DVR records evidence on a removable micro SD card. The HECATE receiver also has a channel changing feature allowing the operator to view multiple cameras at the touch of a button.

Additional search capability can be further enhanced with the optional lightweight carbon fibre telescopic observation pole. The complete HECATE system is specifically designed for rapid response deployment.
