SkyPASS
Polaris Sensor Technologies, Inc.
SkyPASS is a celestial-based sensor that utilizes four celestial navigation techniques to calculate absolute position and highly accurate attitude information regardless of GPS accessibility. SkyPASS uses three separate optical channels for imaging of the sun, moon, stars, and sky polarization. SkyPASS internally calculates its' location and direction. SkyPASS is driftless, spoof-proof, and is not affected by magnetic disturbances. Its 24/7 operation during the day, in twilight, and at night ensures you’ll have full GPS-denied security meaning you can count on SkyPASS in difficult situations. With 3 generations available, SkyPASS fits all unique missions while costing a fraction of other GPS-Denied Navigation systems. SkyPASS is compact and small, and requires low power to operate, making it quick, efficient and easy to use on different styles of weapon platforms.
Hydra
Polaris Sensor Technologies, Inc.
Hydra offers multi-wavelength, polarimetric sensing with zoom for robust automated target detection/recognition ATD/R). Polarimetric sensing is well suited for the detection of surface vessels when under-resolved. Hydra, operating in its polarimetric mode, has demonstrated capability to detect surface vessels over vast areas of oceans with just a few pixels on target. This is considered breakthrough capability, providing search and rescue, situational awareness, threat detection missions capability at longer stand-off ranges over wider fields of regard. HYDRA is rugged and can be operated from helicopters, fixed-wing airplanes, boats, and from a tripod.

Description
See what's ahead, with Pyxis! Rugged, compact, and powerful, Pyxis is a portable imager that leverages eTherm™ polarization-enhanced thermal imaging to deliver real-time performance in even the most challenging conditions. Whether you're navigating autonomously, tracking a fast-moving target, or detecting oil on water, Pyxis provides unmatched clarity and precision across a range of mission-critical applications. Pyxis is available in three optimized models — LWIR (the world’s smallest thermal polarimeter), SWIR, and VIS — Pyxis is engineered to meet your specific imaging needs. Pyxis can record in real time imaging or standard intensity imaging, and it's unique polarization signature leads to high True Positive Detection Rate (TPDR), and low False Positive Detection Rate (FPDR). Pyxis delivers powerful polarization capabilities alongside continuous thermal vision, without compromising traditional thermal imaging performance.
