SCOUT is a throwable, self-contained radar sphere that gives operators instant situational awareness of a space they can’t see into.

Throw it through a doorway, down a hallway, through a window, onto a rooftop, or up onto a porch. Upon impact, SCOUT activates and begins scanning autonomously, detecting human presence and relaying results wirelessly to the operator. It can detect a person’s micro-movements anywhere in the room — their heartbeat, their chest rising and falling — and it can tell you if someone is moving toward or away from the entry point. It’s like throwing an impenetrable x-ray ball right into the space and getting feedback immediately. Assess an entire room in seconds without exposing anyone to danger.

Fire Service Use Cases

  • Pre-entry room assessment in structure fires
  • Searching floors above via window throw
  • Assessing areas too dangerous for immediate firefighter entry
  • Rapid victim prioritization across multiple rooms
  • Hazmat scene assessment from a safe distance
A tool that helps find a victim in a burning building

Law Enforcement / SWAT Use Cases

  • Throw onto a porch to detect occupants behind the front door before breach
  • Place near an exterior wall to detect someone hiding just inside
  • Detect if a suspect is approaching the entry point from inside — know they’re coming before the door opens
  • Hostage situation intelligence — determine number and position of people in a room without visual contact
  • Barricade standoffs — continuous monitoring of subject movement without line of sight
  • Reduces risk of injury to both officers and occupants during dynamic entry
