To support a growing North American customer base for Universal Avionics’ ClearVision EVS-5000 multispectral enhanced vision cameras, the Tucson, Arizona unit of Elbit Systems has established a repair capability for the product at its Part 145 facility. The added capability also augments its worldwide support for the EVS-5000.
“ClearVision EVS-5000 is one of the most sophisticated electrical optical systems for aviation of its time. Successful implementation of repair services paves the way to additional high-end technology work in our Tucson facilities,” said Universal v-p of operations Steve Pagnucco. “This project has showcased Universal Avionics’ ability to develop optical test equipment and transition complex technologies across a global corporation.”
ClearVision provides enhanced visuals with real-time synthetic information to improve flight safety and operations, merging six sensors from visible light to longwave and high-definition cameras into a single combined image. That provides pilots with complete situational awareness in a variety of weather conditions day or night, as well as during takeoff, approach, and landing.
