Next Generation Airport VehicleSafety Systems and Features

FOD Finder™ detection and retrieval system will help reduce FOD problems on all airport surfaces. Derived from a military sensor for finding .9mm trip wires with very low power millimeter waves.

AIR Boss ™ digital airfield management system is an interactive part 139 airfield inspection system with additional features to help airport leadership manage trend analysis and Safety Risk Assessments (SRM). Lost revenue from aircraft fuel/oil spills can now be recovered with documentation and chain of custody from detailed photos and tracking data. A key tool for minimizing risk increasing productivity of inspection personnel.

Runway Incursion Prevention System (RIPS) ™ warns drivers of oncoming runways, restricted areas and ILS boundaries. Our system monitors the drivers response to warnings and uses both visual and audible warnings to improve drivers situational awareness on high hazard areas.

SOPHIA ™ voice warning system verbalizes sensor detection, warnings and information from all onboard systems to increase the operators situational awareness and reduce workload.

GOATvac™ reduces the time of FOD recovery of small nuisance items like blowing paper, bag tags and the time of conventional inspection methods. The speed and effectiveness of FOD Finder™ with GOATvac reduces the time a runway is closed for a detailed safety inspection, increases runway utilization, and improves the productivity of airfield personnel performing inspections.Meets FAA AC 150/5220-24 & 150/5200-18
