    Company Description
     

    AD Aerospace a British company, based in Manchester, UK and Atlanta, USA,  designs and manufactures the FlightVu range of aerospace video security and safety systems.  In addition to general security applications such as threat detection, physical security and access control, these systems can be used for monitoring activity in the cockpit, passenger cabin and cargo hold.

    FlightVu systems range from CabinVu and CabinVu-123, Cockpit Door Monitoring Systems (CDMS) consisting of a number of video cameras located over the cockpit door and in the galleys linked to a monitor on the flight deck, to -

    • FlightVu Witness extending the camera coverage throughout the passenger cabin and incorporating an aerospace digital video recorder/server to record the images for future use in investigation, analysis and prosecution, and can also be integrated with ground based security systems.

    • CargoVu provides cameras within the cargo area of aircraft connected to a digital video server and a dedicated LCD display situated on the flight deck, allowing the crew to keep a visual check on cargo loading to assess progress and monitor for illegal activity.  This acts as a deterrent to baggage theft, cargo tampering and gives early warning of stowaways or possible terrorist activity.

     

    • FlightVu Defender provides comprehensive perimeter coverage around and inside parked, unattended aircraft using environmentally protected CCTV cameras.  The cameras are connected to a digital video server, within the aircraft that analyses the images using Video Motion Detection (VMD) software.  Any activity which occurs within programmed zones then triggers an alarm.

     

    • SmokeVu is a Video Smoke Detection and Analysis system, which uses intelligent software to differentiate between smoke and false alarm triggers such as haze/humidity, even under the high vibration environment of a Freighter airliner.  This software is installed on the state-of-the-art digital video processor, which can then alert the Fight deck crew to the presence of smoke.

    AD Group, the parent company, includes the UK CCTV giant Dedicated Micros (DM) the world leader in multi channel digital video recorders (DVR) and inventor of the world's first video multiplexer.  It is calculated that globally 7 million images a second are captured on DVRs from AD Holdings.

    AD Aerospace is a designer and manufacturer of video camera systems for commercial aerospace with EASA approvals for Manufacturing: UK.21G.2205 and Maintenance: UK.145.00613, and is an approved supplier to The Boeing Company.  

    The company has facilities in Manchester, England, Atlanta, Georgia, USA and in Singapore.  

    AD is a production partner for Flight Deck Entry Video Surveillance systems on B737, B747, and B777.
