According to the company, the NS12 and TC12 are among the first fixed thermal cameras on the market with a 1280×1024 imager. That higher resolution translates directly into coverage: each camera protects approximately 2.5 times the area of a traditional 640×480 system. On large sites — utility substations, data centres, airports, ports, and wide-area campuses — fewer cameras means fewer poles, fewer cable runs, and lower total infrastructure cost.

Both cameras deliver AI classification across the full inbound detection range, giving security teams trusted alerts throughout the entire protected area.

“Critical infrastructure perimeters don’t fit in a small box. Our customers protect utility substations, data centres, airports, and large open sites where coverage gaps aren’t acceptable and infrastructure costs are real. The NS12 and TC12 were built for exactly that challenge — protecting more perimeter with fewer devices, with the AI classification performance and trusted alerts that operators can rely on. This is what more than 20 years of engineering for this application delivers,” commented Jim Hahn, CEO, Sightlogix.

Made possible by Gen7

Running real-time AI analytics on a megapixel thermal sensor demands a purpose-built processing architecture. The Sightsensor NS12 and TC12 are powered by Sightlogix’s Gen7 edge processing platform, which delivers 20× the AI throughput of prior generations through a dedicated AI core — providing the processing headroom that megapixel thermal AI detection requires.

On the TC12, Gen7 simultaneously processes the full-resolution 1280×1024 thermal stream and 4K visible stream — running independent AI models on both, cross-validating detections in real time, entirely on-device, with no cloud dependency.
