Process Controllers
Orbit Controls process controllers are designed for direct connection to virtually all industrial sensors and signal sources. They can be used as process monitors to display the process variables to be measured or as process controllers to monitor processes. In addition to the digital display, the devices also have data interfaces, analog outputs and set point outputs. Simple process monitors are optimized in the factory for the desired measuring range and function at the customer's request. The programmable controllers can be parameterized on site via the keyboard or the data interface.

Multi-Sensor Systems
Multi- sensor surveillance systems represent a fast growing group of electro-optical systems of critical importance in both defense and civilian applications. At the same time they are the most expensive groups of electro-optical systems. Most advanced but rarely met multi-sensor surveillance systems are built from a long series of sensors like thermal imager (or two thermal imagers, color VIS camera, low light VIS-NIR camera, SWIR camera, laser range finder, laser designator, laser pointer, illuminator located on a stabilized platform and such systems. Simpler systems built from two-three sensors located on smaller stabilized or non-stabilized platforms are more common.
