By GlobalDataThe Allegro 20/20 software and the WSC tag provide interval statistics and shot counting analytics that automatically notify the user or the manufacturer of critical weapon maintenance required in advance of any failure.
The software can optionally geolocate weapons in the armoury within a foot.
Visible CEO John Stevens said: “We have many armoury and WSC government customers who have set a high bar for weapon maintenance and weapon security and determined that RF-based systems are simply not acceptable.
“RuBee wireless magnetics has consistently met the most critical customer requirement of 100% accurate audit read rates, 99.9% exit-entry detection, even in high steel content environments and high EMI noise environments where RFID based systems have challenges.”
Visible and Lewis Machine & Tool CEO Karl Lewis said: “We are excited to be selected as the supplier of the EDF service weapon, we are committed to making high-quality weapons for our Nato partners and worldwide customers.”
