The Long Range Acoustic Device™ (LRAD®) is a breakthrough hailing and warning, directed acoustic device designed to communicate with authority and exceptionally high intelligibility.
What makes the LRAD product unique is its ability to transmit your message with exceptional voice intelligibility and tonal clarity in a highly directional beam, even with significant ambient noise. The directionality of the LRAD device reduces the risk of exposing nearby personnel or peripheral bystanders to harmful audio levels.
The LRAD Advantage:
- HIGH DIRECTIONALITY
- Reduces the risk of exposing nearby personnel to excessive audio levels
- HIGH DECIBEL OUTPUT
- Clear communication and unmistakable warning at extended ranges
- Attention-getting and highly irritating deterrent tone for behavior modification
- COST EFFICIENCY
- Increased security coverage
- Reduced manpower
- Increased operational efficiency
- Increased response capabilities
- EASE OF INSTALLATION
- Low power requirements
- Weatherproof
- Lightweight
- Flexible mounting (Optional SCRAM Cart configuration)
- PROVEN TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION
- At sea since May 2004
- Maritime security since August 2004
- Public safety since August 2004
The LRAD 1000 can issue a verbal challenge with instructions in excess of 500 meters and has the capability of following up with a warning tone of 151 dB (at one meter) to influence behavior or determine intent.
The LRAD 500 produces a sound pattern that provides clear communication beyond 300 meters. The deterrent tone can reach a maximum of 145 dB (at one meter) to influence behavior or determine intent.
LRAD-X™
The LRAD-X product line is designed to broadcast powerful and intelligible voice messages and warning tones. The superior voice intelligibility and clarity of LRAD-X provides a highly directional audio beam that achieves maximum sound projection and penetration over distance. LRAD-X operators have the ability to issue clear, authoritative verbal commands, followed with powerful deterrent tones to enhance response capabilities.
Remote Long Range Acoustic Device LRAD-RX™LRAD-RX can be operated remotely across an IP network enabling system operators to respond to potential threats from a safe environment while creating a complete unmanned perimeter security solution. LRAD-RX accepts intruder position information from other IP-enabled sensor systems to automatically find and track potential threats. LRAD-RX's large safety zone gives security personnel additional time and valuable information if an elevated intruder response becomes necessary.
