A multi-spectral imager captures key UAS elements that help identify high-risk targets for a pinpointed response. The LVSS C-UAS adds proven Air Domain Awareness and Counter- UAS capabilities to the market-leading LVSS platform. In addition to early warning alerts and detection, the LVSS C-UAS standalone, relocatable, and rapidly deployable system provides non-kinetic countermeasures for various UAS systems.
ON-THE-MOVE EFFECTIVE, NON-KINETIC COUNTERMEASURES
Non-kinetic RF countermeasures provide the system with full C-UAS kill chain capabilities. Threats are detected simultaneously. Details are provided to the operator when the system is either fully deployed or while the vehicle is on-the-move.
ACT FASTER WITH HIGH-PERFORMING VIDEO ANALYTICS
Gain additional insight into selected threats by engaging comprehensive video analytics models to identify and track. Additionally, the analytics model can be used to control the camera autonomously.

Best CBRNE Detection Solution identiFINDER R700
The Teledyne FLIR identiFINDER R700, introduced in June 2021, is a Backpack Radiation Detector (BRD) that fills a need in the operational deployment of radiation detectors.
In June the US Department of Homeland Security Awarded $6.5 Million for the Low-profile Backpack with Mobile Phone App Allows Radiation Threats to be Detected and Tracked Discreetly at Mass Gatherings or Public Events.
The R700 builds upon years of tried and true spectroscopic algorithms applied to a man-portable backpack detection system for accurate and reliable results.
The R700’s lightweight, flexible and portable design allows users to configure the system as either an unmarked backpack or a stationary device, enabling mission sets from wide-area searches to temporary checkpoints.
With its nondescript backpack form-factor and phone-based user interface, operators detect radiological threats covertly, even in a crowd.
The identiFINDER R700 which is a recent recipient of a U.S. government award, provides the capabilities required to successfully perform wide-area searches quickly and efficiently while offering exceptional sensitivity, communication, and trusted spectroscopic algorithms in a lightweight, ergonomic form-factor.
*FLIR Systems has now been recognized in all Six Consecutive Years of the Annual ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards.
