VMS Helios is implemented using a client-server model with support for scaling to 1000+ cameras in a distributed infrastructure. The system is based on an open architecture with full ONVIF compatibility, allowing integration of both proprietary Tanz sensors (MWIR, LWIR, daytime cameras with focal lengths up to several thousand millimeters) and third-party equipment.
Multispectral observation and threat management: from infantry units to unmanned systems
A key feature of the platform is specialized PTZ control for electro-optical/infrared systems. Helios is optimized for operating with very long focal lengths, ensuring smooth zooming and precise targeting over long distances.
Automatic object classification in the Helios system
Helios coastal multipoint observation system
The system automatically creates a panoramic view of the horizon through a series of azimuth shots, forming a panoramic view of the observation line for better situational awareness of the operator. The platform displays heading vectors of multisensor devices in real time and visualizes the optical field of view directly on loaded maps.
The AI-based AVT (Automatic Video Tracker) module receives video signals from thermal and daylight cameras, providing automatic tracking of moving objects from both stationary posts and mobile platforms. Algorithms with artificial intelligence elements allow tracking of targets on land, at sea, and in the air.
Automatic detection and classification of aerial targets
Multiclass detection in thermal imaging mode
The platform combines data from heterogeneous sensors in a unified interface: GNSS/GPS determines the position of the mobile platform, laser rangefinders provide distance-to-target data, digital compasses provide azimuth, and AIS and radar data allow tracking of vessels in real time.
Система представлена у трьох конфігураціях, кожна з яких оптимізована під конкретні сценарії використання та вимоги до розгортання.
Орієнтована на мобільні комплекси з архітектурою standalone, де сервер і клієнт об’єднані в одному бортовому комплекті для автомобільних та портативних систем.
Призначена для стаціонарних систем охорони кордонів і периметру з багатокористувацькою клієнт-серверною архітектурою та AVT-трекером з AI.
Найпотужніша версія для масштабних систем з розподіленою архітектурою, розширеними алгоритмами AI-аналітики та можливістю навчання на специфічних об’єктах.
In coastal surveillance projects, Helios combines long-range thermal imagers with marine radar and AIS data, detecting ships and high-speed boats several miles from the shore. The system collects ARPA target tracks, AIS vessel data, and ONVIF video streams from cameras.
For military applications, the system integrates with electronic warfare equipment and anti-drone systems. Helios detects UAVs via cameras and radars, transmits coordinates for suppression engagement, and ensures rapid response to modern threats.
In addition to full support for Tanz Security equipment, the platform integrates with leading commercial VMS solutions via standard protocols and specialized drivers. This enables Helios to be used as a specialized module within existing infrastructures or as a standalone solution for unique scenarios.
The company maintains partnerships with video management vendors at the level of deep software integration, offering third-party platforms for typical video surveillance tasks, while Helios is used for specialized cases involving long-range sensors and military systems.
The solution has been successfully deployed in border protection systems of Saudi Arabia and Schengen area countries, used in Frontex missions for coastal surveillance in Europe, and installed in airports in Australia and Thailand.
Helios VMS demonstrates its effectiveness in scenarios where standard video surveillance systems are unable to handle long distances and operational conditions. Deep automation through auto-tracking and classification enables operators to monitor vast areas with minimal effort.
The platform occupies a niche between specialized C4ISR-grade solutions and commercial VMS, maintaining ease of use while providing advanced multisensor control capabilities for long-range surveillance systems.
