heliguy™ Tactical Dog Camera
Expand the potential of canine operations with the heliguy™ Dog Cam. Obtain real-time situational awareness for public safety, security/surveillance, military, and search and rescue operations.
A HD camera is mounted to a lightweight impact-resistant helmet worn by the dog. Footage is instantly transmitted to a screen worn by human officers/crews. This allows the handler to work behind the dog from a position of safety to gain a picture of what is happening ahead in real-time. The Dog Cam - manufactured in the UK by heliguy™ - utilises technology from the drone sector, including advanced camera and image transmission systems.

Camera
Real-time imagery for situational awareness
The camera is an 8MP Sony IMX219 sensor - an upgraded camera board accessory, often used to equip UAS with lightweight camera functionality. It weighs 8g and offers enhanced low-light performance, image quality, and colour fidelity, and is able to capture up to 1080p @ 30fps video. It also utilises a fisheye lens, providing a useful wide-angle view of what the dogs can see. The camera is moulded onto an industry-leading 3D-printed Trident K9 Tactical Helmet, from K9 Helm. The helmet is designed to work in harmony with the movement of the dog. The helmet is available separately to the dog camera.
Video Transmission
Low-latency video feeds
The Dog Cam benefits from the advanced video transmission technology associated with the UAV sector. The device features a set of components that provide a long-range video link and can be easily battery-powered. This creates a better solution with enhanced capabilities. The Dog Cam has a range of up to 500m. It can provide live transmission of 1080p 30fps and can achieve latency of <200ms.
Enhanced Battery Life
Up to 4 hours of run time
Through the addition of a higher-capacity battery, with lower power consumption, the camera has been designed to last significantly longer than the standard runtime of dog-handling operations. The Dog Cam has a battery life of up to 4 hours.
Dedicated App
Authorised within police IT systems
heliguy™ has developed a custom Android application, enabling officers to view the live footage from the dog camera. The app is available on Google Play store, which means that heliguy™ can provide consistent updates to ensure stability and add new features in the future.
