Based on acoustics the shot locating system will help the troops to gain prompt and adequate response in the event of a threat, enhance situational awareness and boost coordination between units when neutralising a threat.
The system consists of a control post with four sensor posts to capture acoustic signs and differentiate them from environment sounds through radio.
In addition, Indra will provide the army with alert management equipment that integrates Halo-detected threats and distributes them through the army’s radio to a series of terminals.
