OceanView Technologies Inc. Launches Apollo II Thermal Camera System
Following the hugely successful launch of the new OceanView Apollo II night vision camera at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show this week, VEI, the Fort Lauderdale based marine electronics manufacturer announced it had taken record orders for the product during the show.
Mike Bader, OceanView's CEO said "Adding digital zoom and an LCD camera controller with no additional cost has proven to be a great move. We have added significant value to the already tremendously successful Apollo and judging from the reception we have had at FLIBS I am confident the Apollo II is going to be a world beater."
The OceanView Apollo II incorporates a thermal imager with its new 2x digital zoom and an ultra-low-light camera in the same 360° pan and tilt housing. The camera also has an on screen camera position locater and a home button. The Apollo II enables the user to see clearly not only in total darkness but also in a wide variety of poor lighting conditions including heavy rain, bright sun and some fog. The Apollo II makes boating more safe and enjoyable and extends the day into total darkness. Now floating debris, channel markers and other vessels are easy to see. Looking out for unlit or semi-submerged objects in passage or for maneuvering in unknown waters and anchorages just got a whole lot easier. With the new LCD controller, the user has fingertip control and a clear view of the simple menu.
Finally, feedback from many existing Apollo users led OceanView to recognize the importance of remote access and so the Apollo II now has an IP control option for those users wanting to view images from the camera via an off vessel internet connection.
