VisionMaster FTDual Channel Radar
Product Presentation
The Problem: Blind Arcs & Blanked Sectors
● No radar or ARPA information from the blind arcs or blanked sectors
● Poor situation awareness
● Vulnerability
● Typical cases – Rigs
– Very Large Ships
– Antipiracy
The Solution: VisionMaster FT Dual Channel Radar
● Two independent asynchronous radars can
be displayed on a single screen
● Two independent VisionMaster FT radars can
be controlled from a single screen
● Seamless operator view from two radar
heads
● Targets seamlessly tracked across the two
radars
● Virtually no limit to the separation of the radar
heads
