On day one of the Paris Air Show, Safran Electronics & Defense announced a strategic partnership with U.S.-based Trillium Engineering, a specialist in compact electro-optical systems. The collaboration will expand Safran’s Artis electro-optical solutions portfolio, now featuring Trillium’s smaller, stabilized camera turrets ranging from 2 to 25 inches—perfect for lighter platforms like drones, helicopters, and small aircraft.
Both companies bring proven expertise in delivering compact, lightweight, and energy-efficient systems that are crucial for today’s aerial missions. This alignment will significantly enhance mission adaptability and operational efficiency for defense users.
Trillium Engineering is a recognized leader in lightweight electro-optical and infrared gimbals for unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and other airborne platforms. Their advanced imaging solutions—featuring high-definition EO/IR sensors, laser targeting, and precision geolocation—greatly improve intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) performance.
The partnership reinforces both companies’ dedication to delivering next-generation technologies that meet the complex and evolving operational requirements of defense and security forces worldwide.
