7.5hz version exportable to South Africa

 * Pathfinder has TV NTSC out which can be captured using Mpeg4Compression and transmitted from the Uav robotics plane with MeshNetworking. It is the same IR camera as used in BMW hud display for night driving.

 * http://www.flir.com/cvs/cores/view/?id=51374 Tau uncooled cores are a better UAV alternative to the the pathfinder, it replaced the older FLIR Photon II IR Camera. It can fit lenses from 9-100mm, while the pathfinder has a fixed lens. FLIR offers all of its uncooled thermal imaging cameras in slow-rate video (< 9Hz) versions. For NTSC, the slow video rate is 7.5Hz, and for PAL, the slow video rate is 8.3Hz. These rates apply to slow video versions of the following cameras:
 * Photon 640, 320, 160, 120, and 80
 * Tau 640, 320, and 160
 * Quark 640 and 336

 * Scout version also available for export but has no TV NTSC out port.

UK based company with no Flir type ITAR export restrictions. Their Thermal cameras can be used on UAVs.

http://www.thermoteknix.com/content/english/thermal_imaging_ir_products/miricle_thermal_imaging_ir_cameras/index.html MIRICLE 307K Imaging: MIRICLE 307K cameras establish a new level of performance, free of US Government export authorization, for delivery to global markets. MIRICLE cameras are available either as self-contained camera units or as OEM cores for integration into end-user products. With low weight and low power consumption MIRICLE is ideal for applications such as UAV, man-portable surveillance, driver aids and enhanced vision systems for aircraft. There is also a range of PC software options for configuration and control of MIRICLE.

XTi Technology® - Shutterless Option Thermoteknix patent pending XTi Technology® cameras operate without the use of a mechanical shutter or TEC. They have no moving parts, are smaller, lighter, silent and more robust. XTi enabled cameras are never blind and deliver continuous live video without the interruptions inherent with shuttered cameras. XTi technology can be packaged into the conventional KS waterproof or ultra light-weight XTi housings.

Introducing MIRICLE MicroCAM Ultra Low Power Shutterless Infrared Thermal Imaging Thermoteknix' thermal imaging MicroCAM is the best in its class with the smallest size, weight and power consumption, outperforming its nearest rival by more than 400 miliwatts! Unlike competitive products which freeze the image at regular intervals for calibration, MicroCAM is a solid state digital infrared camera with no mechanical shutter to interrupt imaging or cause maintenance or mechanical failure... For ultra low power consumption, size and weight critical applications such as unattended ground sensors, UAV's, sight systems and handheld devices, MIRICLE MicroCAM leads the field...

MicroCAM is ideal for portable and power critical/battery powered applications for more compact and lightweight products. MICROCAM low power thermal imagerUltra Lightweight Compact electronics and detector packaging dramatically reduces MicroCAM’s footprint and weight. At just 26g (excluding lens), MIRICLE MicroCAM is the lightest uncooled thermal imaging core currently available in serial production. Low cost With less component parts and no mechanical shutter assembly the MIRICLE MicroCAM was specifically designed for large scale production. Volume prices for MicroCAM open up new markets for thermal imaging devices.

Thermal imaging cameras
URl of this page: http://bit.ly/B7v3i. http://www.nightdrivingsystems.com Place a thermal imaging camera in the nose of a vehicle and patrol the streets looking for people with concealed weapons. Distance is 500m in the dark. Their 9hz version has been approved for export to South Africa. Motorbike riders fits a http://www.gizmag.com/snx/link.php?M=38129&N=590&L=10570 or http://www.nightdrivingsystems.com head visor VideoGoggles which costs $1000 to drive in the dark. Use the same head mounted display to look for assailants hiding in the bush or fit it to an UnmannedAerialVehicles

The price is $4000. See http://www.ir.com.tw/cvs/Products/cvs_product_PathFindIR.htm for the model used in the HUD display of BMW. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3uaTyNWcBI&mode=related&search=
