Camero and TiaLinx are unveiling their two different wall sensing solutions that employ the same Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) radar technology, at the ISDEF expo 2010.
Israel-oriented Camero is releasing its Xaver 400 and 800 products and is demonstrating a model of the ultra-small handy Xaver 100 design that can be accommodated into the pouch of a soldier. These devices efficiently monitor the existence of people behind a wall, showing their relative positions, actions and sometimes the distance from the target.
The U.S. oriented TiaLinx’ Eagle Five family of radar systems serve as dual-purpose systems for detecting and tracing the objects behind the walls, and the intense flexibility of the sensor is even capable of detecting alive people who are caught under the rubble by sensing their breathing motions. It also inspects underground weapon storage hollows and IED positions inside the walls.
The camera spotlights the specific area with speedy, broad-band intense-frequency waves which permeate through wood, concrete, glass, dry wall and bricks. The waves reflected from the underground things and anomalies are refined to generate a two-dimensional picture of the target. The radar tracks objects that have been located within a 30 ft depth into the ground or shielded in a 20 cm thick concrete slabs.
TiaLinx supplies two units of the Eagle 5 system; the Eagle 5P handy RF imaging device for tunnel and culvert inspection and the 5B version for underground deep motion identification. Various other handy sensors with helmet integrated display devices are also available with the company.
