Teledyne FLIR OEM Launches Prism Ground ISR Software for Tactical Perception and Military Target Classification

Key Terms

isr technical

ISR stands for socially responsible investing (from the French phrase Investissement Socialement Responsable) and means choosing stocks, bonds or funds based on environmental, social and governance criteria in addition to financial return. Like picking a brand that matches your values, ISR matters to investors because it helps align portfolios with personal or institutional priorities, can reduce exposure to companies with regulatory or reputational risks, and can influence demand and valuation for firms deemed more sustainable.

c-uas technical

c‑UAS (counter‑unmanned aircraft system) are integrated tools and procedures used to detect, track, and stop unauthorized drones—like a security system that sees and disables an intruder in the sky. Investors watch c‑UAS because rising drone use and tighter rules create demand for hardware, software, and services, which can drive sales growth and affect regulatory risk for companies in defense, airports, utilities, and event security.

computational imaging technical

Computational imaging uses software and mathematical algorithms together with sensors to create, enhance, or extract information from images that hardware alone cannot capture. Think of it like a photo editor built into the camera that transforms raw sensor data into clearer, richer, or purpose-specific images. Investors care because it can turn cheaper or smaller hardware into higher-performing products, enable new features (for example in medical scans, cameras, or manufacturing inspection), and open revenue or cost-saving opportunities across many industries.

sdk technical

An SDK (software development kit) is a bundled set of tools, code samples and instructions that lets outside developers build software that works with a company’s platform or product. Think of it as a toolbox and recipe that makes it faster and easier for others to create compatible apps or services. For investors, an SDK matters because widespread developer use can boost product adoption, create new revenue streams and strengthen customer lock‑in, signaling potential future growth.

infrared technical

Infrared is a band of light with wavelengths longer than visible red light that we cannot see but can feel as heat, like the warmth from the sun or a stovetop. Investors care because infrared technology — used in thermal cameras, night-vision, remote sensors, and some communication systems — drives demand for specific chips, sensors and manufacturing capacity, affecting revenue, margins and regulatory approvals in companies that build or use those products.

AI-driven software stack provides situational awareness and high-fidelity tracking for complex ground-based intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions

Prism™ Ground ISR enables AI-powered detection, classification, and tracking of personnel and vehicles for enhanced ground-based ISR.

Advancing Ground-Based Protection

As security environments grow more complex, the need for persistent situational awareness is growing. From border surveillance to force protection and the defense of critical infrastructure, operators need tools that identify threats earlier and with greater precision. Prism Ground ISR addresses these challenges by combining patented image enhancement with advanced AI models to deliver accurate target recognition with fewer false positives in cluttered environments.

“Just as Prism C-UAS transformed how we detect small, fast-moving drones, Prism Ground ISR marks a significant advancement in ground-based AI target recognition,” said Jared Faraudo, Vice President of Product Management at Teledyne FLIR OEM. “By integrating visible and infrared thermal data, including fine-grained military vehicle classification, we are turning raw data into a decisive tactical advantage.”

AI-Powered Detection and Tracking

Prism Ground ISR combines AI-powered detection with computational imaging to extend detection range, improve track persistence, and reduce false alarms, helping operators respond earlier and with greater confidence. The software uses turbulence mitigation, dehazing, and super-resolution to enhance infrared visibility, while separate acquisition and tracking pipelines support earlier detection and more accurate tracking of small, fast, or maneuvering targets.

Trained on Teledyne FLIR OEM’s real and synthetic electro-optical and infrared data, the software supports fine-grained military vehicle classification and improved target recognition in cluttered environments. Prism Ground ISR supports up to 15 object classes out of the box, while Prism AIMMGen™ enables rapid expansion to additional target classes using synthetic data as mission requirements evolve.

Streamlined Integration for Scalable Deployment

Designed for rapid integration, Prism Ground ISR runs on NVIDIA^® Orin NX and AGX and supports Teledyne FLIR OEM’s Boson^®+ and Neutrino^® camera families, including continuous zoom models. The software is also compatible with select third-party infrared and electro-optical sensors, enabling comprehensive multi-sensor solutions. The Prism Ground ISR SDK further reduces integration risk and helps teams field new capabilities faster. Backed by global-scale production and an experienced technical services team, Prism Ground ISR can be deployed across a wide range of tactical ground architectures.
