Up to four Vicon SurveyorVFT 23x day/night camera domes are mounted atop a 26 foot telescoping tower attached to a portable trailer body. The tower collapses and folds to a horizontal position over the trailer body for easy towing. When deployed, the cameras on the portable units provide high-resolution surveillance video that may be monitored via wireless communication from either a central monitoring station or from any computer with internet connection and loaded with Wanco's client software. Camera functions, including pan, tilt and zoom, can be fully controlled from the monitoring location.

SurveyorVFT camera domes were chosen by Wanco after significant product testing. Because the cameras are being used in a mobile platform, Wanco faced many unique challenges that do not exist in a typical installation. The cameras need to perform in a wide range of environmental conditions, including heat, cold, vibration and dust, as well as operate on the finite amount of power provided by the trailer's battery.

"The cameras tested among the best that we looked at, and the company's service was far and away better than the others" says Silas Campbell, sales coordinator at Wanco.
