V-RAMBO
Tadiran Spectralink
V-RAMBO
is a man-portable, remote video terminal which receives TV broadcast
quality live video and telemetry data, captured and transmitted by
directly from aerial, surface and ground platforms. The compact system
is comprised of a lightweight portable receiver, carried in a pocket or
pouch, and a rugged, wrist-wearable display and control unit. The system
can be coupled with PDAs, laptop PCs and goggles which can display
standard video signals. Live video images provided by the Battlespace
VideoNet (BVN) are used to establish an ad-hoc common language between
units engaged in joint operations, such as Special Forces and air
support.
By
exchanging real-time target views through the Tactical Video Transmitter
(TVT), verbal coordination and guidance can be minimized and better
precision and situational picture can be delivered.
A new addition to the Rambo ensemble is the
miniature Tactical Ruggedized Video Transmitter (TARGET), weighing only
140 gram, it can transmit video from a source (sniper's weapon sight for
example) to a distance of two kilometers, it is transmitting up to 0.5
watt, using analog, FM modulation, transmitted on the S band. (TARGET
can be seen on the lower left side of the photo shown on the top of this
page) |
