Featured in Nerd Bot By Deny Smith: In the coming decade, the most powerful innovations may not come from Silicon Valley but from a place where defense and commerce intersect — in the world of electro-optical and infrared (EO/IR) systems.

Once reserved for military intelligence and space missions, these advanced imaging technologies are now quietly transforming industries as varied as agriculture, energy, transportation, and public safety. The line between what’s built for soldiers and what’s used by civilians is fading fast — and that’s opening the door to safer skies, smarter cities, and more efficient industries.

Featured in The Data Scientist:  For nearly a century, radar has defined how we detect what’s out there — a steady pulse scanning the skies and seas. But today, a quiet transformation is underway. Around the world, a new generation of electro-optical and infrared systems (EO/IR) is reshaping how we see and secure our surroundings — not through radio waves, but through light itself. These EOIR technology serve as comprehensive solutions, integrating hardware, software, and operational procedures to manage surveillance and targeting capabilities.

Clear Align strengthened its presence in the counter-UAS arena through recent field operations in Asia, working alongside Five Eyes partner nations to prove in advanced counter-drone technologies for short-range air defense and critical-infrastructure protection.

Eagleville, PA — Clear Align, a leader in AI- and network-enabled electro-optical and infrared (EO/IR) imaging systems, has been awarded a contract for RVSS system upgrades to strengthen U.S. border surveillance and security operations. This contract is part of a broader initiative to advance border security technology, supported by ongoing projects focused on the modernization of surveillance systems.

Eagleville, PA — Clear Align is pleased to announce it has been awarded a significant follow-on contract for the development of a state-of-the-art airborne EOIR camera gimbal payload. This next phase expands the project’s scope to include the highly complex off-axis optical train, along with the integration of high-definition sensors, precision video electronics, integrating into a mechanical stabilized gimbal platform for a dynamic flight environment.

The new EOIR camera gimbal combines multi-axis stabilization to provide unmatched imaging performance and target tracking across in flight missions.
