Blue Print Operations (BPO) an Australian Tactical Software development company was invited to participate in field demonstrations and competition sponsored by the Australian Federal Government. BPO approached Antenna Products because the wireless radios they were using could not support the media rich features of its highly developed software such as multiple streaming video feeds, deployment briefings, photos and voice communications.

USAF currently monitor remote fixed assets by ground sensors which alerts monitoring locations when the sensor is alerted to ground movement in a specified area surrounding the asset. This is an accurate method to monitor ground movement but the remote monitoring location had no visual way to determine what triggered the sensor. Security would often arrive to determine if the alert was an actual threat and discover that the sensor was triggered by an animal or debris.

Cast Fire Solutions RifleCam and ScoutCam image sharing cameras are used as video sensors for the iSPY TMR/MMR systems. The cameras have successfully served US military specialized units for over ten(10) years. The look-thru design of the RifleCam and ScoutCam cameras enable video sensing without interfering with the normal operation of the host optic. Cast Fire Solutions cameras have been adapted to a wide variety of optics and weapon sights.

Antenna Products was approached by a large commercial customer mainly focused in heavy and agricultural equipment manufacturing to develop a multi-frequency wireless mesh radio based on our COTS CMR design. This customer wanted to integrate its mobile equipment with the Antenna Products CMRs to enable mobile equipment to share and compare data with each other and to transfer this data to a central collection site.
