Acoustic Detection and Localization System for the Belgium AIV Program (Armored Infantry Vehicle)

June 2006 --[ASDWire.com]-- In the frame of the AIV program awarded to MOWAG with the Piranha IIIC 8x8 vehicle, protection of the crew and of the vehicle has been identified as an important concern by the Belgium Army. An Acoustic Detection and Localization System has therefore been required on some vehicles variants.
OIP Sensors Systems, in charge of the sensor equipment range of the vehicle, has selected the PILARw from 01dB-Metravib, leader in acoustic detection systems. OIP Sensors Systems and 01dB-Metravib have elaborated a configuration allowing to meet the high requirements of the project and a full integration with the vehicle electronics.
This reference is for 01dB-Metravib an important milestone in its new approach of vehicular integrated acoustic detection and localization systems in order to meet the users’ needs in participating to large national vehicular programs.
