Perimeter security experts Teledyne FLIR, the 2021 Platinum ‘ASTORS’ Award Winner for Best Chemical/Biological/Radiation/ Nuclear/Explosive (CBRNE) Detection Solution, debutted its new flagship security lineup for perimeter protection at ISC West 2022.

Security personnel can rely on Teledyne FLIR’s field-proven technologies for powerful performance in all weather conditions, with products that offer fast threat recognition and multi-layered security capabilities.

Attendees also had the opportunity to see their robust counter-unmanned aerial system (C-UAS), and a variety of industrial condition monitoring solutions firsthand.

Focusing on robust designs and ease of use has enabled Teledyne FLIR UAS to be operated anywhere, providing support and aiding relief efforts throughout both polar Arctic regions, Europe, Asia, and the Americas.

Also launched at ISC West, attendees saw their new FLIR FH-Series cameras: two models of ruggedized, multispectral fixed cameras that pair 4K visible imaging with a thermal sensor offering industry-leading sensitivity.

The FH-Series ID features onboard FLIR Virtual Barrier convolutional neural network (CNN) analytics for intrusion detection and resilience against false alarms, while the FH-Series R is purpose-built for radiometric applications and early fire detection where temperature monitoring is critical.

Also available was the new FLIR R-Series commercial ground-based radars, which also come in two models: the R-290 (compliant with United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines) and the R-190 (Conformité Européenne (CE)-compliant for Europe).

R-Series radars can detect threats early, giving security managers the time they need to react to intrusion activity, adding a critical layer of security within a perimeter intrusion detection system, and complementing visible and thermal security cameras.

(A first for Teledyne FLIR, the Elara R-Series is the ideal commercial radar system for industrial commercial applications, increasing detection coverage, auto-tracking, dynamic mapping, and position intelligence of intruders. Courtesy of Teledyne FLIR and YouTube.)

“The Teledyne FLIR team is excited to introduce our next generation of perimeter and asset protection solutions,” explains Kai Moncino, the Director of Global Business Development for Security, at Teledyne FLIR.

“As threats continue to evolve, Teledyne FLIR is committed to helping our customers address them, on the ground and in the air.”

Teledyne FLIR showcased its C-UAS solution at ISC West, a platform that brings together FLIR military-grade radars, long-range cameras, and advanced management software as well as third-party radio frequency systems and effectors.

Also on display was their full suite of FLIR visible security cameras, the United Video Management System (VMS) platform, and industrial condition monitoring solutions for predictive/preventative maintenance for vital assets at data centers, substations, and other critical infrastructure sites.

Teledyne FLIR designs, develops, manufactures, markets, and distributes technologies that enhance perception and awareness.

Teledyne FLIR

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.

• 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.

Our 2021 keynote speaker featured a moving and informative address from TSA Administrator and Vice-Admiral of the United States Coast Guard (Ret), David Pekoske; to our attendees who traveled from across the United States and abroad, on the strategic priorities of the 64,000 member TSA workforce in securing the transportation system, enabling safe, and in many cases, contactless travel.

Legendary Police Commissioner William Bratton of the New York Police Department, the Boston Police Department, and former Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department was also live at the event, meeting with attendees and signing copies of his latest work ‘The Profession: A Memoir of Community, Race, and the Arc of Policing in America,’ courtesy of the generosity of our 2021 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Premier Sponsors.
