A
new way to view robot operations.
Positioned at a “side-angle”
to your robot operations, the Sentinel RSD system uses
a digital signal to deliver high-quality, full-motion
video to the EOD command center.
More
than just a surveillance system...it's also a digital
repeater!
In addition to its role as a video surveillance
unit, the Sentinel is also a digital radio repeater.
Functioning as a relay between the command unit and
the robot, users can get up to two miles combined line
of sight (LOS) range. See more about this exclusive
function in our repeater section.

Tireless.
Unlike human observers, a Sentinal RSD can sit still
for hours in all weather without fatigue, keeping a
tireless eye on the target. Sentinel’s military-grade
lithium ion batteries offer about eight hours of operation.
Wireless.
Sentinel operates using Megalith
Digital Radio technology, the top-rated digital
radio control system developed by Lithos Robotics. Sentinel
has the same one-mile line of sight (LOS) operating
range as other Megalith components and video feeds and
controls can be toggled on and off from the robot control
panel, laptop or iPad/iPod.
Ready.
It takes only a few seconds to activate the Sentinel.
Just flip the on/off switch, wait for the control panel
to acknowledge the Sentinel’s presence, and video
will come streaming in. Weighing in at only 25 pounds,
the unit can be carried downrange by a robot or a tech
in a bomb suit--or, if not going into a danger zone,
by an officer in the uniform-of-the-day. It could even
be driven in on the roof of a patrol car or other vehicle.
Once in place, the PTZ camera can begin gathering intel
on the scene.
