1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Anaconda consists of two primary parts: a thermal imaging device and a mount. The
equipment comes with the mount secured to the body of the device (as shown in Figure 1-1).
The Anaconda is a thermal sensitive device. It can sense differences in heat emitted by objects
in its field of view, and converts the received temperature pattern into a viewable image that
represents the scene in black and white or a color pattern, depending on the selected image
palette.
NOTE:
It is important that the Anaconda sensor receive sufficient thermal contrast between the target
and background area, or between the different parts of a target. For example, there would be a
vast temperature contrast between the snow and any heat target (such as an animal), making it
exceptionally easy to distinguish the target.
The main optical-electronic components of the Anaconda include: an objective thermal lens, an
output lens, a thermal-imaging camera, a display, a control card, and a button control panel. The
Anaconda is equipped with manual objective lens focusing.
