BULLARD TACSIGHT AND THE DHS CEDAP GRANT PROGRAMThe Department of Homeland Defense (DHS) has announced the opening of the application period for the Commercial Equipment Direct Assistance Program (CEDAP). This important program is structured to provide technology equipment to state and local agencies and departments. This program transfers equipment directly to smaller jurisdictions and eligible metropolitan areas. There is no cost to your department.  The Bullard TacSight Thermal Imager, and several accessories, are a qualified technology product for this grant program. TACSIGHT is a thermal imager system specifically engineered for law enforcement. TACSIGHT is a small, lightweight, handheld and fully functional thermal imager that allows law enforcement officials to observe and monitor a variety of threats or ongoing incidents, even in complete darkness. Product information is included for your reference. It is very important that your department files an application for the CEDAP program during the allotted application period. The open application period begins 16 August 2006 and ends 22 September 2006. Applications may be filed on line. You can access the application on the Responder Knowledge base web site at www.rkb.mipt.org. Additional information concerning the CEDAP program may be found at http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/odp/equipment_cedap.htm Engineered specifically for law enforcement, the Bullard TACSIGHT CEDAP SYSTEM provides a powerful and effective thermal imager with a complete array of accessories to support the full range of applications from surveillance and detection, to search and rescue, as well as hazmat and accident investigation. TACSIGHT is especially well suited for tactical operations in poorly lit conditions. The TACSIGHT thermal imager requires no light. Heat energy is detected from target objects or subjects, and seen by the camera operator as a clear visual image. TACSIGHT enables law enforcement personnel to see heat signatures of objects, people, and other sources. TACSIGHT detects extremely small differences in temperature, so that officers can distinguish people from their immediate surroundings. Needing no light to operate, TACSIGHT generates high-quality images on the darkest nights, even through smoke and fog. That means you can count on TACSIGHT to present clear distinctive images in your operations with human form clearly distinguished at 1000 feet. TACSIGHT is fully qualified by the Law Enforcement Thermographers Association for the full range of surveillance, detection, and threat assessment applications. Light weight, handheld, and simple, direct reliable operation make the Bullard TACSIGHT a valuable law enforcement asset. The Bullard TACSIGHT exhibits unparalleled durability, able to withstand repetitive 6 foot drops to hard surfaces, and 3 feet immersion for 30 minutes.
