NightRide Vehicle-Mounted Thermal Imaging in Arkansas
See What Headlights Cannot
First responders frequently operate in darkness, smoke, wooded areas, rural environments and other conditions where normal visual observation can be difficult.
NightRide vehicle-mounted thermal imaging gives personnel another way to detect people, animals, vehicles and other heat-producing objects in low-visibility environments.
AVC Wireless provides NightRide thermal imaging solutions to public safety organizations throughout Arkansas.
Thermal Imaging from the Vehicle
Unlike a handheld thermal camera that must be carried and operated separately, a vehicle-mounted system can provide thermal visibility directly from the response vehicle.
Potential public safety applications include:
- Missing-person searches
- Rural patrol
- Search and rescue
- Perimeter observation
- Fire and emergency response
- Low-light operations
- Wildlife detection
- Situational awareness
NightRide vehicle-mounted technology can help first responders detect people, vehicles, animals and movement when darkness, smoke and other environmental conditions limit normal visibility.

Which NightRide Thermal Camera Is Right for Your Agency?
The right thermal imaging system depends on how and where your vehicles operate.
Whether you need a straightforward fixed thermal camera such as NightRide Trailblazer or the expanded viewing capabilities of NightRide 360, AVC can help evaluate the vehicle, operating environment and mission requirements to recommend the appropriate solution.
More Than a Thermal Camera
NightRide thermal imaging can be incorporated into a complete public safety vehicle upfitting solution from AVC.
Whether your agency selects NightRide Trailblazer, NightRide 360 or another thermal imaging configuration, AVC can help integrate the technology with other mission-critical vehicle systems, including:
- Motorola mobile two-way radios
- In-car video
- License plate recognition
- Emergency lighting and warning
- Sirens and controllers
- Computers and tablets
- Equipment consoles and mounting
- Antennas and vehicle connectivity
- Power distribution
- Other public safety vehicle technologies
Rather than adding thermal imaging as an isolated piece of equipment or coordinating multiple vendors and installers, agencies can work with AVC to develop the vehicle as a complete, integrated system.
Our team considers camera placement, operator visibility, equipment accessibility, wiring, communications, power requirements, available cabin space and future serviceability as part of the overall vehicle design—helping ensure NightRide thermal imaging and other onboard technologies work together effectively.
