NightRide Thermal to show vehicle-mounted thermal gear at Police Fleet Expo 2026

NightRide Thermal will exhibit its vehicle-mounted thermal imaging systems at Police Fleet Expo 2026 in Orlando from Aug. 10-13. The company is using the show to reach police fleet decision-makers with products that help officers detect people and hazards in darkness, smoke, fog and dust.

Why it matters: - Police fleet managers help decide which technologies get installed in patrol vehicles. - NightRide Thermal is targeting that audience as agencies weigh tools that improve officer visibility and situational awareness. - The company positions thermal imaging as a way to make patrol fleets more effective in low-visibility conditions.

What happened: - NightRide Thermal said July 22 it will exhibit at Police Fleet Expo 2026 in Orlando, Florida. - The expo runs Aug. 10-13 at the Orange County Convention Center. - NightRide will be at Booth 108. - Attendees will be able to see live demonstrations of the company’s vehicle-mounted thermal imaging line.

The details: - NightRide’s systems are designed to help officers detect people, vehicles and hazards in complete darkness and through smoke, fog and dust. - The booth demonstration lineup includes Unity Spotlight mounted Pro-SL cameras, the NightRide 360 remote pan-and-tilt system, the Arges-mount-compatible Sentinel Stealth and the NightRide 360 LUX with integrated LED spotlight and floodlight. - The company said more than 160 agencies across the country use NightRide solutions. - NightRide said those agencies credit the products with helping locate fleeing suspects and missing persons when conventional lighting and night vision fall short. - In one recent case, officers using a NightRide camera located a suspect nearly 800 yards away in pitch-black terrain within 15 minutes of arriving on scene. - NightRide is a woman-owned small business. - The company says its products are hand-assembled in the USA. - NightRide says the products are ISO 9001:2015 certified and available on GSA Advantage. - NightRide says it has a dealer network of more than 250 dealers serving over 160 agencies nationwide. - The company’s headquarters are in Brooklyn, New York.

Between the lines: - Police Fleet Expo gives NightRide a direct path to fleet upfitters and specifiers, not just end users. - That matters because thermal imaging has to be purchased and installed at the fleet level before it can become standard patrol equipment. - The company is pairing product demos with adoption claims to show both capability and field use.

What's next: - NightRide will demo its products during the expo hall dates on Aug. 12-13. - The company is likely aiming to convert show interest into fleet-level purchases and wider agency adoption. - NightRide directs readers to more information. - The company’s social channels are available on LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.

The bottom line: - NightRide is using Police Fleet Expo 2026 to pitch thermal imaging as a practical, fleet-wide upgrade for law enforcement vehicles.
