LASERD® MAX
LASERD® MAX provides comprehensive laser detection and intelligence gathering capability against a wide range of real-world threats.
DETECT
LASERD® is a family of laser sensing products capable of detecting both pulsed and continuous wave lasers on the battlespace.
Laser Signal and Event Recording Device (LASERD®)
The threat from laser systems to military and civilian personnel is well-documented and will increase and diversify over time. Obtaining accurate information relating to real-life incidents is critical in order to develop mitigations and protection.
Sentinel developed the LASERD® product family to provide a versatile, class-leading and cost-effective laser detection capability for military operations. LASERD® is available in a range of variants, tailored for different customer needs and scenarios.
PRODUCTS
LASERD® MICRO
A very small laser threat detector specifically designed to alert military users to the presence of pulsed laser radiation associated with laser designators and rangefinders.
LASERD® OEM
The LASERD® product family are built out of modular interchangeable sensors units.
LASERD® MAX
An all in one laser warning and intelligence gathering platform.
LASERD® MAX allows a full spectrum laser detection capability to be rapidly deployed in a wide range of battlespace scenarios. From providing autonomous threat scanning at a forward operating base to detecting laser microphones in high security settings, LASERD® MAX offers comprehensive laser detection with minimal training and User burden.
USPs
- Integrates with countermeasures
- Portable, battery powered sensor
- Detects all classes of battlespace laser, including continuous wave
- Outputs precise threat locations
- Provides image based output
MARKETS

WHAT'S INSIDE
LASERD® MAX
LASERD® MINI
Portable laser detection.
LASERD® MINI is a small mini wearable laser detector, containing a sub-set of sensors from LASERD® MAX. It covers a smaller range of laser threats, primarily focusing on those capable of bodily harm such as laser beamriders, designators, range finders and high-powered laser pointers.
LASERD® MINI allows users to determine the approximate threat detection, and provides immediate warning of threat type. Warning mechanisms include haptic feedback, audio alert and LEDs.
LASERD® MICRO
A small laser warning system designed to alert military Users to the presence of threat to life laser radiation associated with designators and rangefinders.
It uses a proprietary combination of light sensing elements and signal processing to instantaneously provide an alert to military laser radiation, with a class leading low false alarm rate. LASERD® MICRO is a modular design individual sensors can be combined to provide all round protection, and a variety of hub options exist, allowing LASERD® MICRO to be tailored to Users’ requirements.
USPs
- Low SWaP, approximately the size of a GoPro
- Portable or integrated into wider systems via user selectable interface
- Integrates with countermeasures, can be used to trigger other systems
- Portable, battery-powered sensor
- Threat-specific sensor, rejects clutter including other battlespace and civilian lasers
- Low false alarm rate (none detected in testing trials)
MARKETS
Defence – base protection, observation point, light vehicles, cockpit
Security – SCIF counter surveillance, VIP protection, maritime security
LASERD® AIR
LASERD® AIR is a smaller, simpler version of LASERD® MAX that detects visible band threats, such as those commonly encountered by Aircrew.
LASERD® AIR provides an immediate warning to the user as well as recording actionable information for each event which includes the imagery, signals and peripheral data, such that intelligence can be built up and analysed.
The core hardware that captures and processes images is coupled with software and interface options that can be adapted to customers’ needs. Custom builds can be catered for on request.

SIZE COMPARISON
OEM
Modular interchangeable sensors.
The LASERD® product family are built out of modular interchangeable sensors units. These units can be adapted to fit into bespoke housing or reorientated for various size, weight and power requirements, allowing them to be used by integrators in larger systems. Sentinel provides an opportunity to develop bespoke sensor modules that are ideal for embedding into platforms or larger devices and integrated into defence aid suites or platform electronics.
