Revolutionizing Close Quarter Battle Cinematography

WarpCam® has ushered in a new era in tactical filmmaking, delivering an unprecedented approach to capturing close quarter combat. For the first time, scenes are infused with an unmatched level of realism and immersion, thanks to WarpCam®’s groundbreaking detached operator system and telescopic poles. This allows camera operators to access tough spots and angles unreachable with traditional equipment, fully transforming the cinematic portrayal of CQB (Close Quarter Battle) scenes.


The advanced WarpCam® setup invites cameras into compact spaces, intimately entwining them within the core of the operation without impeding military personnel's movements. The reach afforded by the telescopic poles places viewers in the midst of the unfolding action like never before, dramatically enhancing the visceral storytelling impact.


What truly sets WarpCam® apart is its capability to adjust to the demanding pace and varying environments of tactical operations. Far more than a static recording device, it operates seamlessly alongside military teams, mirroring the adaptability and precision required in high-stakes missions.


In the hands of WarpCam® operators and under the subtle guidance of our action team, tactical operations needn't be dramatized for the lens. The camera itself becomes an adaptive, discreet part of the team, preserving the genuine articulation of tactics and amplifying the intricacy and vigor of close quarter confrontations.


This synergetic integration of WarpCam®, with its nimble technology and the innate expertise of the action crew, culminates in footage that not only captures every strategical nuance but also uplifts the traditional cinematic experience, offering filmmakers a firsthand experience of the action's intensity and complexity.

Precision Thermal Imaging for Tactical Clarity

Our state-of-the-art thermal imaging camera is equipped with a 50 mm lens with a detailed 14° angular perspective. This technology ensures unmatched situational awareness, capturing everything within the zero to maximum range with precise clarity.


The camera's robust F 1.0 lens aperture excels in zero-light conditions, with an eye relief of 14 mm that allows for comfortable, prolonged use. Its exceptional close focus capability is essential for high-stakes environments, bringing critical details into sharp relief.


Powered by an uncooled thermal sensor with a high-resolution output of 1024x768, and a pixel density of 0.79MP at a 12μm pixel pitch, the camera captures fine thermal nuances with a NETD of 40mK. This sensitivity is pivotal for detecting subtle temperature variations across a detection range of up to 2300 meters.


With no optical zoom needed and a refresh rate of 50Hz, our thermal camera provides continuous, real-time imaging, making it an invaluable tool for tactical cinematic operations where every detail matters. This camera not only enhances operational effectiveness but also offers new dimensions in tactical cinematic planning and shooting.
