Offered at a fraction of the cost of traditional radar technologies, Symphony® ARS covers up to a mile in every direction. This ground-breaking technology improves the situational awareness and efficiency of airfield security and operations personnel.
Symphony® Airfield Radar System is a turn-key solution in operation at 20 European airports
The Symphony® ARS is a turn-key delivery, which simplifies installation. Symphony® ARS radar is in operation at 20 European airports and is now available in the U.S.
- Wide Beam 360° Radar – Covers the airfield like a streetlight, unlike narrow beam radars that are more like a flashlight
- Advanced Camera System – Thermal imager and high-density color and network video recorder provide real-time assessment and forensics
- Classification – The system knows the difference between people or wildlife and planes or vehicles
- User Defined Rules – Incorporate location, classification, speed, size, direction and previous behavior to reduce false alarms and only respond to real threats
- Tracking Areas – Customize tracking areas with unique parameters, rules and responses
- Interfaces with Existing Systems – Provides a two-way interface with legacy airport access control and surveillance systems
- 24x7 remote and onsite hardware and software support
