OVERVIEW

The Palladium VidiVest Vest is a covert, body worn, 100 mW COFDM
microwave video transmission garment system. Palladium digital
technology and our advanced antenna system combine to provide high
signal quality and very effective mobility. The vest conceals all
components and provides sheilding from transmitter heat. Power is
supplied by a concealed 9 AA battery pack.

The lightweight vest is designed to fit many body sizes and is ventilated for
comfort. It is designed to hold all system components as an undergarment
for use with a casual shirt. The design holds all components close to the
body, allowing a loosely fitting shirt to be buttoned over it without
protrusions or wires showing. A hard-wired ON/OFF switch is available as
an option. An optional wireless keyfob ON/OFF switch is also available.

The high-resolution color CCD camera is disguised as a shirt button.
The Palladium transmitter offers integral AES encryption.  Two audio
inputs are provided.

Deployment is quick and easy. All connectors are color-coded and locking.
A special two-patch antenna harness, built into the vest, provides an omni-
directional transmission pattern.  The entire vest system is powered from a
single battery pack, which holds 9 AA size Lithium batteries. A set of
NON-rechargeable Lithium cells have been provided in the kit. Battery life
with one set of fresh Lithium cells is more than 3 hours.

Note

:  Only Lithium Ion AA batteries are recommended.

The VidiVest Fits Snugly On The Body

Using Velcro Fasteners.

One size fits all.
