Pixon Imaging LLC The “Go-To” Company for Video Enhancement

“Real-Time Video Enhancement for Greatly Improved ISR” Richard Puetter, PhD, CEO & Chief Scientist

When better pictures can’t be taken, we make them better!

We Solve Problems Better Cameras Can’tThe benefits of our products:

• Remove (1) haze, fog, (2) image blur, and (3) desert “heat waves”.• Increase local contrast to reveal low-contrast features.• Increase sensitivity in low-light.
