Tata Power's Strategic Engineering Division (Tata Power SED) has received an order from the Border Security Force (BSF), Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) , Govt of India for the supply of Rajak TBC DN-1, its indigenously developed Hand Held Thermal Imaging Systems (HHTI) (Cooled Version). BSF is one of the premier forces of India using HHTIs for border surveillance and has selected through a global tender Tata Power SED's Rajak TBC DN-1 Multi-Function Thermal Imager after extensive field trials.
Rajak TBC DN-1 is a 'Created in India' product designed, developed & manufactured at Tata Power SED's Optronics Facility in Bangalore. While this gives impetus to Govt of India's 'Make in India' campaign, it also provides end-user the facility to reduce the repair downtime substantially, as the entire maintenance and repair will be done in-house. Until now, the forces like Indian Army and BSF used to source the HHTIs from abroad and the downtime between repairs could even be in years. Tata Power SED's RAJAK-TBC DN-1 is an advanced Hand Held Thermal Imager meant for Long Range Day / Night Surveillance application. It combines multiple sensors such as Thermal Imager, Day Sensor, Digital Magnetic Compass and GPS Receiver, all in a single compact housing.
Rajak TBC DN-1 uses state of the art Cooled Thermal Imaging sensors with resolution 640 x 512 pixels at pitch of 15μm and has the capability to detect vehicles at upto 9kms. Additional facilities like wirelessly transferring/ streaming day/ night imagery video to a console upto 5 kms, image/ video storage and Day/ Night Fusion substantially increase the surveillance & reconnaissance capability for soldiers. With the network link integrated it is a true force multiplier.
