Handheld Radar System Can See Through Walls
(Israel Defense) Eyal Boguslavsky - The Xaver-100 hand-held radar system developed by Camero was deployed by IDF special operations units during the 2014 Gaza war. Amir Be'eri, founder and CEO of the company, said the system "enables fighters to determine, in the course of operational activity in an urban environment, in real time, how many people are present behind the wall, how far they are positioned from the wall, what their spatial attitude is and whether they are moving closer to or away from the wall." "The system transmits to a range of 20 meters and several such sets may be employed to form a network." "Camero also manufactures the Xaver-800 system - a larger but still portable system. This system offers 3D imaging of the room space and the people in it, and is used primarily for complex situations in hostage rescue and intelligence collection operations."
