About
About Kallon
Kallon is a six-metre deployable observation tower powered by integrated solar generation and batteries. A panoramic camera and long-range pan-tilt-zoom sensor provide continuous coverage, while edge processing detects and tracks people, vehicles and other configured threats without sending every video stream to a remote data centre.
ArtemisOS manages detections, alerts, remote viewing and coordination between several towers. Terra rates Kallon for observation up to five kilometres and automated detection to approximately three kilometres, with encrypted communications and an IP67 field enclosure. Kallon is deployed around borders, mines, pipelines, public infrastructure and remote industrial sites.
