2.0 INTRODUCTION 
The PTZ-35x140MS and SR-35x140MS are high-resolution multi-sensor (MS) camera systems 
designed specifically for the security market for medium- to long-range security applications. 
Each model includes a sophisticated thermal imaging system that provides excellent night 
visibility and situational awareness, even in absolute darkness, as well as a standard high 
resolution low-light video camera

The Foveal Concept 
The PTZ-35x140MS and SR-35x140MS feature a completely new concept in image 
presentation based on the foveal vision of the human eye. Foveal vision allows the operator to 
enjoy a wide angle view for situational awareness while maintaining a high resolution area in the 
center of the screen for object identification and tracking.  
The PTZ-35x140MS and SR-35x140MS accomplish this with two independent thermal cameras...

2.1  Advantages of Thermal Imaging 
The 35x140MS camera is designed for simple, intuitive installation and operation. Each thermal 
camera is based on FLIR’s widely-deployed uncooled microbolometer imaging core. All 
cameras include FLIR’s advanced image processing techniques which deliver excellent contrast 
regardless of scene dynamics. Unlike other night vision systems that require low amounts of 
light to generate an image, the...

Figure 2-4: Backlit daylight camera on left; thermal image on right  
Observe that the setting sun in the backlit image on the left makes it difficult to discern any 
objects of interest; the thermal image on the right is not affected by the bright sun and therefore 
provides detail and contrast.  
2.2 Camera Enclosures 
The PTZ-35x140MS and SR-35x140MS cameras are packaged in environmental enclosures 
that meet IPX6 test standards....
