Universal EMD and TSCM Spectrum Analysis Software Deployment (TSCM Equipment Resource Update)
Waypoint Counter Surveillance successfully deployed the Universal EMD (Exotic Modulation Detector) for the first time during a recent high threat level TSCM operation. The Universal EMD was utilized to detect the presence of visible and non visible light, ultra sonic and inductive surveillance technologies moving the TSCM inspection process beyond the more common RF transmission threat.
In addition to the Universal EMD, our new highly advanced professional TSCM RF detection and spectrum analysis software application was also deployed for the first time. Our software application, which will be incorporated with the new Palantir Fast Acquisition Receiver (FAR) offers an unmatched combination of features and capability that has generated significant interest during initial classified and non-classified briefings and demonstrations.
* Our advanced research and development efforts in combination with our design and engineering projects have taken us past the routine TSCM application process providing highly innovative solutions for the most sophisticated new and developing international intelligence related technologies.
2011
December / 2011
We are pleased to announce the newly developed Universal EMD (Exotic Modulation Detector) is now available in North America exclusively through Waypoint Counter Surveillance.
The first production model of the highly advanced and unique Universal EMD has been extensively tested in our TSCM laboratory facilities in Canada and compared to industry standard broadband detectors and other TSCM and SIGINT industry benchmark tools.
The Universal EMD can detect, demodulate and easily locate ultrasonic and inductive clandestine signals. No other universal search, detection or location TSCM tool is capable of detecting such modulation techniques, which reliable commercial intelligence sources indicate have been in use by sophisticated attackers for at least three years.
In addition, LED lights incorporated in a covert surveillance transmitter or compromised electronic device as well as laser emitters are detected by the Universal EMD at distances in excess of 20 feet and the Universal EMD was the only TSCM equipment resource able to detect and demodulate the transmission despite the presence of light induced camouflaging noise designed to hide its existence.
* Waypoint Counter Surveillance is committed to providing effective, innovative and highly advanced TSCM equipment resources through ongoing research and testing of new and developing technologies internationally.
