DRI Ranges

DRI stands for Detection, Recognition and Identification and is based on the widely used Johnson's criteria.

  • Detection Detect if an object is present
  • Recognition See what type of object it is (i.e. person, vehicle, airplane)
  • Identification For example see if someone is a friend or foe
Detection Recognition Identification
Rabbit 317 meters 79 meters 39 meters
Person 1117 meters 279 meters 139 meters
Vehicle 2705 meters 676 meters 338 meters
