Range-R Handheld Through Wall Sensor
LAW ENFORCEMENT ONLY – ID Check required before shipment
When Every Second Counts
L-3’s RANGE-R is a lightweight handheld radar system designed to detect people through walls. Within seconds,
RANGE-R informs the user of the presence of moving or near-stationary personnel and the distance, or range, to the person.
RANGE-R provides vital intelligence necessary to safely undertake a wide variety of law enforcement and search and rescue operations.
Performance
RANGE-R detects even the slightest movements, including those of normal human breathing, with a probability of detection (Pd) greater than 95 percent,
while maintain a false alarm rate (FAR) of less than 5 percent.
With an effective range of up to 50 feet, the system can “see” through walls, floors and ceilings constructed of reinforced concrete, cement block, wood,
brick, adobe, glass and other common non-metallic construction materials.
Technology
L-3’s patented stepped frequency continuous wave (SFCW) radar technology and proprietary target detection algorithms enable RANGE-R to operate as a highly sensitive Doppler motion detector. Advanced packaging design results in the smallest, lightest through wall sensor available today.
Operation
RANGE-R is designed for simple one-handed operation. Holding RANGE-R to a wall, door or other building structure, the operator simultaneously presses buttons on the sensor’s two sides to begin the analysis.
Within three seconds, the system returns a range-to-target result as well as the status of the target, which is indicated as either
a mover (Mov) or a breather (Br).
The result is displayed to the user in terms of distance in feet to the target on the unit’s LCD.
RANGE-R is also capable of detecting and displaying the range of multiple targets. In such cases, the display will alternate
through the different ranges of the targets.
Applications
·First Responders:
Hostage situations, stand-offs, natural disasters and burning buildings, are a few examples of scenarios where RANGE-R’s
see-through=the-wall technology can be utilized to locate persons hidden from view – without putting the lives of first responders in
unnecessary danger.
RANGE-R enables police, SWAT, emergency medical teams, firefighters and other special operations teams to efficiently and effectively allocate
their precious time and resources when split second decisions must be made.
For example:
· Police and/or SWAT units can determine the presence and location of assailants or hostages in a building.
·Search and rescue teams can locate injured people inside buildings.
·Firefighters can quickly determine whether people are trapped in a building.
With near immediate analysis and results, RANGE-R provides first responders with critical information
that may make the difference between life and death.
