"Bringing the Outside in"

Remote camera systems for harsh environments

About us

We are a 'hands on' consultancy dedicated to delivering innovative technical solutions remote observation and monitoring  projects. 


We work with Universities, Government departments, Broadcasters,  Nature conservation bodies,  Natural heritage visitor centres as well as Port authorities and other businesses.


We have been experts in our field for over 20 years and have worked on projects throughout England, Scotland and Wales but also extensively in Europe and even the Galapagos Archipelago.   


Our approach is to analyse the needs of each project and design an 'end to end' system using best of class equipment. The systems we design always represent best value and are designed to last in often adverse environmental conditions . 


We offer support for all our systems including online and telephone support as well as planned and responsive maintenance.

'Bringing the Outside In'

Our first Project was for the Scottish Seabird Centre, in the East of Scotland ( UK). This project involved installing cameras, power generation and transmission equipment on four off-shore seabird colonies and beaming live images back to a visitor centre on the mainland. Visitors could watch the live video images on giant screens and remotely move the cameras with a joystick.  This is the origin of our 'Bringing the outside in' strapline as our systems allowed anyone of any age or ability to view the birds without causing disturbance come rain or shine.  The systems we installed helped the SSC win numerous awards including the Queen's Award for Enterprise three times! (see the rest of the awards here;  https://seabird.org/about/awards/21/94)


Since those early days we have developed things a bit and now can give our customers access to cameras and microphones wherever they are on tablets and mobile phones as well as on a big screen.


As of 2022 we are an accredited member of Greenlight Safety Assessment Scheme which is recognised by SSIP for procurement. Health and safety is always at the forefront of all our operations and this accreditation proves this and enables us to continue working with our larger corporate customers.
