MOHOC Cameras are ruggedized cameras that are used to record both training and key mission activities. MOHOC cameras feature a patented form-factor that provides a low-profile and helmet-contoured fit. With an IP68 rating, they are ruggedized and easy-to-use in extreme conditions with simple, tactile controls. The cameras capture 1080p HD video and 12MP photos in visible light and infrared illumination, run on multiple battery types and livestream video over Wi-Fi. MOHOC cameras are already deployed with the U.S. Navy and Special Forces and SWAT teams around the world.
The IMTDragonFly is a miniature transmitter designed to capture real-time, high-quality video from UAV, UGV, bodycams and concealments for display on fixed or mobile receive applications and features HD/SD-SDI or optional HDMI inputs with COFDM transmission in a small, lightweight chassis.
