Unattended Ground Sensor Node
|
|
The
Unattended Ground Sensor Nodes couple leading edge RF
technology with a reliable mesh protocol to deliver a
long-lasting sensor network.
Announcing a scalable family of networked sensor nodes that
provide pinpoint surveillance, reconnaissance and intelligence
anywhere. Trident nodes are built tough, emplaced quickly, and
designed for long-term unattended operation. They connect with
cameras as well as acoustic, seismic and other sensors, giving
your forces in the field a critical tactical advantage. Most
important, Trident is first in the industry to use an advanced
Ultra-Wideband (UWB) communications mesh -- that provides LPI/LPD
(Low Probability of Intercept and Detect). For sensor nodes that
work from the fenceline to the front line, count on Trident
Systems for the finest in force protection and surveillance.
