Custom Thermal Imagers


PhantomIR by ELCAN is a rugged lightweight infrared biocular system that uses the latest in low-power, compact, un-cooled thermal technology.

PhantomIR xr can recognize a man-sized moving target at greater than 2,000 meters. The PhantomIR xr is ideal for: military combat operations, border security, surveillance and targeting applications.

Unlike image intensification night-vision devices that only magnify existing light, thermal imaging cuts through the darkest night and easily separates heat-emitting targets from background clutter. It sees in total darkness, through smoke, dust and most fogs. It cannot be defeated by artificial light or adverse visible conditions. Despite its advanced technology, PhantomIR is surprisingly affordable for large-scale deployment.

ELCAN wins $180 million USD Marine contract to supply PhantomIR xr
