General Dynamics Creates Imaging Div.

General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems created a new organization, General Dynamics Global Imaging Technologies, to deliver imaging solutions for law enforcement, defense and homeland security customers, the company announced.

The new division will allow the company to add integrated long-range infrared and high-definition (HD) imaging systems to its portfolio of electro-optical infrared cameras, precision optical components, stabilized HD gimbals and motion control products.

The new products can address applications that demand detailed optical surfaces, high-accuracy image stabilization and tight motion control tolerances, such as remotely operated weapons systems, imaging telescopes and long-range surveillance cameras. Customers of General Dynamics Global Imaging Technologies will include systems integrators and those requiring aerial and perimeter surveillance applications.

General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems expanded in 2009 with the acquisition of Axsys Technologies.
