MZT140TA Two-Axis Three-Light Turntable

The MZ140TA optoelectronic turntable integrates an uncooled infrared thermal imager, a 30x continuous zoom visible light camera, a laser rangefinder, a two-axis servo-stabilized platform, and an image tracker. With its lightweight design, high stability, precision, and strong system integration, it is well-suited for vehicle-mounted and shipborne deployment, enabling round-the-clock reconnaissance, surveillance, and target localization.

Equipped with both uncooled infrared thermal imaging and visible light camera modules, the turntable can detect, identify, and track ground targets day and night. It outputs real-time infrared and visible light video streams for mission personnel to monitor.

Typical applications of the optical turntable include reconnaissance operations, border patrol, personnel search and rescue, and forest fire prevention.

c) Visible light channel supports 30x optical zoom.
d) Visible light features include optical zoom, autofocus, manual focus, and low-light capability.
e) Infrared sensor provides 1–4x electronic amplification and six color palette switching options.
f) Integrated with laser ranging capability.
g) Possesses two degrees of freedom (azimuth and pitch) for movement.
h) Supports multiple operating modes: automatic search, manual search, follow-up, attitude stabilization, and tracking.
i) In manual search mode, can receive commands from the control station and perform turntable operations accordingly.
j) Capable of isolating carrier disturbances and stabilizing the line of sight.
k) Features target locking/unlocking; once locked, the turntable outputs an image with a tracking frame around the target.
l) Supports automatic target tracking, enabling autonomous tracking with resistance to natural interference.
m) Includes memory tracking function for quick target recapture after short-term loss.
n) Allows adjustment of the gate size.
o) Supports tracking point switching.
p) Can calculate target coordinates using laser ranging data and UAV attitude information.
q) Enables bidirectional communication with the control station via RS422 / 100 Mbps Ethernet, outputting infrared images, visible light images, system status, camera status, and optical axis position.
r) Provides multiple video output interfaces: HD-SDI, Synchronous 422, 100 Mbps Ethernet, and HDMI.
s) Features photo and video recording functions.
