From inception, the companyÕs goal has been to design and manufacture a broad range of high quality video and audio products using high volume components adapted for speciÞ c applications. Since 1996 it has expanded to 12,000 sq. ft. OutlandÕs pri- mary customers are in Marine, Military and Industrial markets. OutlandÕs de- sign engineering staff are experienced in many disciplines. With a combined 60 years + in Electronics and Under- sea work they have developed Video systems and Video components that are second to none. OutlandÕs manufacturing facility is central to the Gulf of Mexico region. From here product shipments are made worldwide. Electrical and Mechanical assembly, product testing and returned material repair are also handled from the same location. Outland has spent a considerable amount of R&D monies for new product development. LED lights have been sold now for many years but the company are always working on the better LED light. These lights have tripled in light output since we Þ rst started and LED manufac- turers are coming out with new devices every week. Not only are LEDs improv- ing but cameras are as well. These cam- eras can go as low as .0001 lux and have a 600 line resolution in color. The company is currently upgrading its Video Overlay boards, ROV control boards and building new HD cameras.
