PETARDS GROUP PLC
("Petards" or the "Group")
World's first military 360 degree spherical camera technology
successfully trialled by the British Army
Petards, the AIM quoted developer of advanced security and
surveillance systems announces today that, further to the Final
Results announcement on 18 June 2020, in partnership with the
British Army's Armoured Trials and Development Unit at Bovington,
its 'eyeCraft 360' spherical video system has completed successful
trials.
Developed by Petards, the eyeCraft360 is the world's first
military grade 360 spherical view camera system. It dramatically
improves local situational awareness for armoured vehicles and
provides a welcome boost to crew safety by reducing blind spot
distances.
Serving soldiers in heavy armour, light armour and mounted
infantry roles put the eyeCraft360 through its paces across a wide
range of challenging terrains, light conditions and tactical
exercises.
The eyeCraft 360 was developed as a simple to install, rapid and
cost effective capability boost for all in-service armoured
vehicles in response to the growing need for improved close-range
awareness.
Raschid Abdullah, Chairman of Petards Group plc said; "We were
delighted by the enthusiastic response the trials team gave to the
system and look forward to it becoming an essential component in
pursuit of the best available protection for the UK's military
personnel and for other approved markets"
