Adams Rite DL100 Revolutionizes Retrofit

Adams Rite is expanding its product line with the introduction of the DL100 Wireless Deadlatch – an advanced, aluminium-stile electrified deadlatch with Aperio wireless technology. Ready for retrofit, renovation or any commercial project with an existing MS door prep, the DL100 combines electrified locking hardware with an access control system in standard aluminium-stile doors. It easily interfaces with other access control elements to extend real-time security cost-effectively to more openings. Online access control with mobile credentials The DL100 uses low-energy motorised EcoLatch actuator technology for silent operation and provides a MultiCLASS SE contactless card reader that supports 125 KHz and 13.56 MHz credentials, with optional support for BLE or NFC Mobile Access. “The DL100 Wireless Deadlatch is the industry’s most affordable retrofit solution, making it easy for integrators to upgrade mechanical openings to wireless access control,” said Patrick Hill, Product Manager, ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions Americas. “Minimal field configuration provides quick, hassle-free deployments that eliminate the cost, inconvenience and sometimes unavailability of hardwiring a door.” Available standard in a fail-secure configuration, the DL100 is always operable from the inside handle or paddle, with entry via mortise cylinder or integrated card reader. The deadlatch comes complete with Form C latch status and tamper monitoring and the product is powered by two AA lithium batteries. The DL100 offers a real-time Door Position Switch (DPS) monitor, Request to Exit (REX) and battery health monitoring and control. Fully-encrypted AES 128-bit wireless connection between the DL100 and Aperio hub ensures cyber-secure data communications. Certifications include: UL 294 Listed – Indoor Rated; UL 294 Salt Spray Test Compliant; Tested to IP65 (Reader Only); FCC Part 15 & Industry Canada Compliant; and CE RED – Radio Equipment Directive – 2014/53/EU.

Teledyne FLIR’s Nurjana camera integration

Industry Sectors, News Desk, Technology / Ghyslaine Cordrey

The FLIR RS8500 high-speed camera has been selected for integration into the NEOS optical tracking system from Nurjana Technologies. Thanks to the camera’s superior resolution and measurement accuracy, the Italian system integrator can offer test range customers a solution to identify and track targets with the highest accuracy. Based in Cagliari (Italy), Nurjana Technologies provides mission-critical engineering services and system integration for the aerospace and defense industries. The company has been successful in offering unique electro-optical systems for government test labs and military test range applications. Automatic target identification and tracking The latest addition to the company’s product portfolio is the NEOS (Nurjana Electro-Optical System), a complete hardware- and software-based system for realtime optical tracking in long-range, high-precision measurement applications. The system was designed to fuse data from multiple sensors, including optical payload, telemetry, radar, and ranging measurement data. The optical payload is customized and composed of a visible-light tracking camera, a radiometric thermal imaging camera, a visible-light measurement camera, and a high-speed camera. Near-realtime data fusion and computer vision are leveraged for detecting and tracking targets in the most demanding scenarios. “A high-resolution thermal camera was essential for this type of application,” says Davide Piras, System Engineer at Nurjana Technologies. “A thermal camera does not only allow us to see targets in dark or adverse weather conditions, like cloudy weather or rain, but we were also looking for a high-speed, high-resolution thermal imaging solution that enabled us to see smaller objects at very long range.” Clearest target with FLIR The company was already familiar with Teledyne FLIR thermal imaging cameras and based on the team’s previous experiences on test ranges all over the world, it was a natural decision to involve FLIR in the development of the NEOS product as well. The FLIR RS8500 high-speed MWIR camera proved to be the best solution for the application. “We looked extensively at different camera types, but the image quality, high-speed features, and many different integration and connection options of the FLIR RS8500 made it the ideal solution to improve target visibility within NEOS,” Piras explains. Nurjana Technologies demonstrated the NEOS system and FLIR RS8500 at select firing test range facilities and centers of excellence for experimentation in the NATO domain. The demonstrations not only showed the FLIR camera’s impressive clarity and image quality but also its superiority to visual cameras in cloudy conditions. “Thanks to the FLIR camera, we were able to overcome adverse weather conditions, improve target visibility with a clear identification of the target’s thermal signature, and see the target in almost any weather condition,” says Piras. “We are glad to have the chance to integrate such an extremely powerful camera into our solution.” For more news updates, check out our June issue here.
