The EVS-1000 is the world's smallest and lightest Enhanced Vision System. It enables pilots to "see through" conditions of poor visiblity such as haze, smoke, snow, rain, and the darkness of night, all of which reduce a pilot’s ability to see the outside environment.

  • suitable for even the smallest business jet or helicopter
  • flexible installation options: nose- or tail-mounted
  • easy to install on all aircraft
  • maintainable

The Max-Viz EVS-1000 system uses uncooled, long-wave infrared sensors to gather data about runways, terrain and any potential obstacles on the ground or in flight. These images are enhanced, relayed and displayed on any video-capable display system in the cockpit.
