The system has been designed to detect small objects such as drones and visualise gas leaks in the air, Opgal stated.

Opgal Optronic Industries president and CEO Amit Mattatia said: "With the proprietary Opgal Eye-Q processing, image sharpness resembles that of a daylight black & white video so much, that it is hard to believe that the image is thermal.”

The image processing methods used by Opgal EYE-Q make it consistently superior to existing thermal imaging at all target temperatures, according to the statement.

The Opgal EYE-Q is already built into the new Sii OP dual-channel thermal camera system and is also available as an optional feature with other Opgal systems.
