MicroDetector(TM) Portable, Motion-Sensing Police Equipment from UltraVision Security Improves Police Officers' Safety.Portable, Retrievable, Rechargeable Motion Detectors Effectively Multiply SWAT, Police and Other Law Enforcements' Forces Police Equipment Arsenal NEW ORLEANS New Orleans (ôr`lēənz –lənz, ôrlēnz`), city (2006 pop. 187,525), coextensive with Orleans parish, SE La., between the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain, 107 mi (172 km) by water from the river mouth; founded -- UltraVision announces availability and demonstrations of the MicroDetector[TM], the world's first motion-sensing device that is portable, rechargeable and retrievable and allows monitoring via an off-premise receiver. See it in action in New Orleans at the International Association of Chiefs of Police
The International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) was founded in Chicago in 1893 as the National Chiefs of Police Union.

UltraVision joins ADS, a leader in tactical gear, special operations Operations conducted in hostile, denied, or politically sensitive environments to achieve military, diplomatic, informational, and/or economic objectives employing military capabilities for which there is no broad conventional force requirement. and police equipment, on the show floor to demonstrate the MicroDetector. Called "the force multiplier A capability that, when added to and employed by a combat force, significantly increases the combat potential of that force and thus enhances the probability of successful mission accomplishment. " by law enforcement professionals, the unit effectively eliminates the need for tactical operations officers to remain in "cleared" rooms. Instead, MicroDetector motion detectors are left behind in cleared areas. Should anyone or anything enter the cleared space, the motion detectors provide a signal to monitoring devices like PDAs, in-car PCs or pagers, notifying law enforcement personnel of the change. This tactical gear unit has a 25', omni-directional range, enabling one unit to cover most standard-sized rooms. Resembling a hockey-puck, the MicroDetector[TM] Personal Motion Detector 1 (MicroDetector[TM] PMD-1) weighs just 8 ounces and is only 4.5" in diameter and 1.5" thick, enabling the deployment of multiple units in larger areas. The device uses microwave technology to perform instantaneous motion sensing operations in the field, with no prior setup or installation. These in-field benefits add to law enforcement agencies' police equipment arsenal by providing force multiplication in tactical field operations, maximizing the safety of law enforcement personnel and the public they protect. Says Bill Lozon, vice president, sales and marketing for UltraVision, "Much too often, police, SWAT teams First developed in the 1960s by local law enforcement agencies, Special Weapons and Tactics units, or SWAT teams, have become common in police departments throughout the United States. and other law enforcement agencies A law enforcement agency (LEA) is a term used to describe any agency which enforces the law. This may be a local or state police, federal agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) or the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). have to leave valuable personnel behind, often alone, to monitor cleared rooms. This can be a costly and dangerous proposition. We're proud to offer MicroDetector motion detectors to improve officer safety and give law enforcement agencies greater efficiencies in their police equipment arsenals so that they may focus on active protection efforts." Effective use of the MicroDetector[TM] PMD-1 takes virtually no training, the user simply turns the device on. An On-Off in the middle of the motion detectors allow for one-handed operation, a huge benefit to law enforcement personnel's use of police equipment. Once deployed, each MicroDetector[TM], via its wireless transmitter, returns a "Motion detected? Yes/No" indication back to a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) A handheld computer for managing contacts, appointments and tasks. It typically includes a name and address database, calendar, to-do list and note taker, which are the functions in a personal information manager (see PIM). or laptop computer. Operations center officers can then alert in-field personnel that the situation in a cleared area has changed. The MicroDetector is also useful tactical gear for stakeout stake·out n.
