Dark 30 – New 360° Pan Tilt Zoom Thermal Camera
Did you ever dream about driving around the roads and fields in pitch black darkness and still being able to see the surroundings, including animals? A new company called Dark 30 now offers this possibility with their Dark 30 Defiance vehicle-mounted thermal camera with a 360° pan tilt zoom. Some potential areas of use include hunting, surveillance, border control and wildlife monitoring. When I hunted wild boar in Texas earlier this year I would have loved to have had this on the vehicle.
Here is the Press Release in full:
Dark 30 Launches Revolutionary 360° Pan Tilt Zoom Thermal Camera
“(MANSFIELD, TEXAS) – Dark 30, an innovative new company in the outdoor technology sphere, is proud to announce the launch of the Dark 30 Defiance, a state-of-the-art 360° pan tilt zoom (PTZ) vehicle-mounted thermal camera. This groundbreaking device is set to transform the way professionals monitor wildlife, enhance security, and conduct inspections with its superior imaging and intuitive controls.
The D30 Defiance enhances the capabilities of nocturnal hunters and law enforcement professionals who have previously had to use thermal handheld devices on foot and through vehicles, which obscured their views through windows and windshields. Mounted on top of a vehicle, the D30 Defiance offers a 360° field of view, allowing users to survey their surroundings with unparalleled clarity and precision. This elevated perspective not only provides a broader and clearer view but also enhances detection and target tracking without users needing to stop or dismount.
Engineered for versatility, the D30 Defiance comes equipped with multiple mounting options, including magnets, suction cups, and direct screws—ensuring compatibility with any vehicle type. All mounting hardware is included, offering a hassle-free setup at no extra cost. The camera’s 360-degree rotation capability ensures comprehensive coverage, allowing users to monitor their surroundings from every angle. Additionally, the integrated directional indicator simplifies target location, enhancing accuracy during critical moments.
Compatible with any vehicle with a 12v cigarette lighter, users may control the device’s angles and rotation with the included low-latency HDMI screen or via their phones with the Dark 30 app, perfect for group operations. The camera’s adjustable panning speeds provide optimal performance across various environments, from rapid sweeps over open fields to detailed scans in dense forests.
This hardy vehicle-mounted thermal camera is built to endure the toughest conditions, and its rugged weather-resistant design can withstand the rigors of off-roading, including impacts from tree branches and the jostling of uneven terrain. At its core, the Lynred sensor ensures exceptional image quality, delivering the sharp and detailed thermal imagery needed for effective surveillance and hunting.
Ideal for a wide range of applications, the D30 Defiance is not just a vehicle-mounted trail camera. It can also be used for wildlife monitoring, law enforcement thermal observation, border patrol, and other situations where a robust mobile thermal device is needed. The D30 Defiance is an all-in-one solution for nighttime surveillance, offering the performance and reliability professionals need to succeed.
