LRAD systems ensure warnings and lifesaving notifications are simultaneously heard and clearly understood over wind and background noise to provide a superior communications capability for crisis situations.

LRAD’s proprietary Long Range Acoustic Devices®, advanced ONE VOICE® mass notification systems, and innovative Genasys™ mass messaging solutions are designed to enable users to safely hail and warn, inform and direct, prevent misunderstandings, determine intent, establish large safety zones, resolve uncertain situations, and save lives.

(When major disasters strike, existing infrastructure is disrupted and compromised, power and communication systems may fail, rural areas can become isolated and urban streets impassible and dangerous. Reliable communication with the public is a must-have capability for first responders. Portable LRAD systems go anywhere communication is needed. Courtesy of NewsOn6, LRAD and YouTube.
