Coral – Miniature Tactical Intelligence Gathering Unit

Product Code: CORAL

Coral – Miniature Tactical Intelligence Gathering Unit

CORAL is a rugged, ultra-compact tactical video and data platform designed for real-time intelligence, surveillance, and remote monitoring operations. Built for field deployment where size, power efficiency, and connectivity are critical, CORAL delivers high-performance encoding, recording, and multi-network streaming in a miniature form factor.

Despite its small footprint, CORAL integrates a powerful HD video engine capable of H.265 processing, supporting 1080p60 decode and 1080p30 encode with multi-stream capability. This allows simultaneous recording and live transmission, ensuring operators never miss critical visual data. Dynamic encoding and built-in Forward Error Correction (FEC) enhance stream reliability in unstable network conditions.

Efficient, Low-Power Operation

CORAL supports a wide range of video sources, making it adaptable to diverse operational setups:

  • HDMI

  • HDSDI

  • MIPI

  • Analog (PAL/NTSC)

  • IP cameras via Ethernet/GbE

This flexibility enables integration with legacy and modern camera systems alike.

Designed for beyond-line-of-sight and mobile operations, CORAL offers multiple communication paths:

  • 4G/LTE cellular connectivity (Nano SIM)

  • Adaptive wireless communication

  • Ethernet / Gigabit Ethernet

  • Dual cellular antennas

  • Integrated GPS module with dedicated antenna

Operators benefit from real-time location awareness alongside secure video transmission.

CORAL is engineered for energy-sensitive deployments such as mobile platforms, battery-powered systems, and covert installations:

  • Power input: 2.8–18 VDC

  • Maximum power consumption: <1.5 W (single analog recording mode)

  • Optimized low-current GPS and system architecture

Integrated Recording & System Interfaces

  • Micro SD slot for onboard recording

  • 32GB eMMC storage

  • Audio microphone input

  • USB-C

  • RS232 / RS485

  • 2× GPIO

  • Built-in microcontroller, RTC, and accelerometer

These interfaces make CORAL suitable for integration into vehicles, UAVs, robotics, fixed security systems, and specialized tactical platforms.

Rugged for Harsh Environments

  • Operating temperature: –40°C to +85°C

  • Dimensions: 50 × 63 × 14 mm

  • Weight: ~200 g

Its compact, durable design ensures reliable operation in extreme environmental conditions.
