Laser-based threats are becoming increasingly prominent in modern warfare and pose a significant risk to deployed ground forces, whether from laser range finders, laser target designators, or laser spotters. Moreover, adversaries have increasingly come to use laser emitting devices as a means to actively neutralize optics and blind operators.
KWESST’s Battlefield Laser Detection System (BLDS) allows troops to be warned when lasers are being used against them, and to determine laser source range and distance
This high-tech solution detects laser bearing threats and enables next-level tactical edge survivability by pinpointing the exact location of enemy laser emitters.
Our BLDS technology is integrated with Android Team Awareness Kit (TAK) to provide soldiers with real-time mutual situational awareness. The Battlefield Laser Detection System comes in two product variants:
For use dismounted in OPs or Forward Operating Bases, or integrated onto combat vehicle platforms.
For use dismounted in OPs or Forward Operating Bases, or integrated onto combat vehicle platforms.
Laser-related threats have become a growing concern among land-based soldiers in recent years. KWESST’s BLDS technology not only provides soldiers with protection from enemy laser threats, but can also pinpoint the source’s location when networked with other BLDS. Keeping troops aware, connected and alive through next-generation technology and equipment is our top priority.
