/ 03 / NDAA COMPLIANT
Cleared for U.S. & EU defence procurement.
HULK 640 contains no components from manufacturers covered by NDAA Section 889.
NDAA Section 889 prohibits U.S. federal agencies and contractors from using equipment from named Chinese vendors (Huawei, ZTE, Hikvision, Dahua, Hytera). The same restrictions are increasingly mirrored in EU defence and critical-infrastructure tenders.
Every HULK 640 unit is manufactured inside the European Union with a fully documented bill of materials. Supply-chain audit and component-level disclosure are available to qualified defence and government buyers.

Edge AI Ready
Designed for embedded processing.
HULK 640 is engineered as the imaging front-end for embedded AI systems. Standard BT656, UVC and CMOS video outputs feed your host SoC or autopilot directly, so your detection, classification and anomaly-recognition models run at the edge, with no cloud and no extra capture board.
- BT656 / UVC / CMOS video output
- Pairs with embedded AI hosts (Jetson, i.MX, Ambarella, etc.)
- Custom AI models & datasets available from SERAPHIM DEFENCE SYSTEMS
- 4.8 / 9.1 / 19 mm lens options · others on request

Why a European Thermal Camera Manufacturer matters
EU defence, energy and critical-infrastructure operators are increasingly required to source thermal imaging cameras from European producers for sovereignty, supply-chain resilience, and compliance with the U.S. NDAA Section 889 and EU public-procurement rules.
EUthermal is one of the few infrared camera producers in Europe that controls every step: sensor integration, optics, firmware, AI and calibration, all inside the EU. Our Poznań engineering centre delivers HULK 640 with a 100% EU supply chain, ITAR-free export, GDPR-compliant data handling and full lifecycle support.
- NDAA Section 889 compliant
- No Chinese components
- 100% EU supply chain
- EU-based R&D and service
- GDPR-compliant
- Eligible for EDF / PESCO programmes
