Mission Recording System Documents Operations from Helmet
Newington, NH—Wilcox Industries Mission Helmet Recordable System (MHRS) integrates a night and day camera and recorder using an eight gigabyte hard drive to record up to eight hours of hi-resolution color video and audio all on a track system mounted to a MICH Helmet.
A miniature camera is mounted with a dovetail shoe on the dashboard of the system for daytime operations. The MHRS works with any AN/PVS 15/18 Night Vision Goggles (NVG) using an eyecup interface and prism that allows the operator to capture nighttime video exactly as it’s being seen without obstructing their view. The MHRS will also accommodate the AN/PVS-14 arm by using the optional interface ring for the eyecup prism. The MHRS will mount onto most helmets with a one or three hole pattern.
The specially designed Modular Powered Track easily secures to the MICH helmet using a patented ratcheting cinch system and a lock release that allows the track to be quickly removed. All controls are easily located on the recorder module at the back of the helmet. The Mission Helmet Recordable System easily downloads to a computer through a concealed USB connection port or with a flashcard. Power is supplied to the system using the Quick Change™ Power Supply Module that holds two 123A lithium batteries for easy replacement while in the field.
The system includes two Quick Change power supply modules and Wilcox’s NVG Lanyard for additional protection against loss of the NVG and mount. Pricing and ordering information for the MHRS is available by calling Wilcox Industries direct at 603-431-1331.
