Abstract: System and method for remote monitoring of at least one observation area, including at least one first camera 110 arranged on a rotating platform 120, the first camera 110 is a line scanning camera for providing high definition panorama pictures of the observation area; at least one second camera 130 arranged on a stationary platform 140, the second camera 130 is a video camera with Pan/Tilt/Zoom functionality for providing real time video from a selected scene within the observation area; an angular position sensor device for triggering the read-out of each line in the first line scanning camera for providing each pixel in the panorama image with a corresponding azimuth and elevation angle; a processing device 150 connected to the first and second cameras 110, 130 for capturing, processing and coordinating azimuth and elevation signals received from the first and second cameras 110, 130.

Abstract: System for monitoring at least one observation area including at least one camera for providing panorama pictures of the at least one area, where the camera is arranges on a rotating platform in the at least one area to be monitored; at least one video camera for providing real time video and which is arranged on a stationary platform in the at least one area to be monitored; a processing device connected to the camera and the video camera for capturing, processing and coordinating signals.

Abstract: Method and system for obtaining continuous range measurements to a target aimed at by using a laser range finder, and where this is independent of whether a laser beam in the laser range finder is reflected off the target at all time.
