FOTONİKS’ presence in IDEF’21 was shaped by demand from abroad. The company is enjoying high demand from its prospective clients, especially for electro-optical systems for armoured vehicles. FOTONİKS also put its solutions for border defence in the limelight. Algorithms that analyse continuously and improve themselves from the results of their analyses are among the common features of these solutions.  

FOTONİKS’ KUZGUN Panoramic Camera System attracted a great deal of attention in the fair, as it is a mature system already in service. Powered by Image processing algorithms of FOTONİKS, KUZGUN can provide 360 degrees of situational awareness and was in high demand both from Turkish and foreign visitors.
