CS, teaming up with Videotec and Panasonic, released a system utilised to prevent and control bushfires in the area, which allows a 360° coverage of the area coupled with high speed in manual or patrol mode, and absolute tracking accuracy.
One of the several Ulisse positioning units was installed on a 30-meter pole near to an Alpin refuge at 2,000 meter above sea level, with very low temperatures and strong winds. Ulisse allows the accurate positioning of a Panasonic CP480 SDIII camera equipped with a 15-300mm lens.
The whole system is working thanks to solar panels and is linked by two wireless bridges, one of 13km and another of 4km, to the Community Council control room, with analogue transmission of the video signal and digital for the control of Ulisse positioning unit.
The system, according to the users, is optimal for such applications.
