The Night Navigator™ HSC (High Speed Craft) is the Night Vision camera system certified to the IMO HSC code and Wheelmark by DNV classification society. It replaces the Night Navigator 8540 which has been installed on hundreds of HSC since the early 2000s. Unlike previous NN HSC versions which used an image-intensified night vision camera, the newest NN HSC incorporates a LWIR thermal camera which allows the system to be used both day and night.
The Night Navigator HSC's compact design with no external moving parts, offers a superior image in color, High Definition night vision. Its rugged and marinized design makes it low maintenance, while its HD quality provides detection of obstacles in the HSC navigation path improved up to longer distances.
It includes a failsafe internal shutter that protects the image intensified tube when system is off (no external cap required).
The NN HSC includes on-screen display of lubber line, trip position, preset position, heading and more. The system performs its own self-diagnostics, evaluating various components, including internal temperature, humidity level and the pan and tilt parameters.
