The iSpy Detection Platform

A wearable, multi-sensor situational awareness system engineered for the demands of tactical law enforcement, SWAT operations, and emergency response.

A Multi-Sensor Pre-Entry Awareness System

iSpy is not x-ray vision. It is a probabilistic situational awareness tool that helps officers understand what may be present behind barriers before committing to entry. It detects probable human movement — not guaranteed human presence — and presents that information in a clear, actionable format.

The system combines three hardware components — a chest-mounted sensor rig, an AI-enabled edge processor, and a forearm-mounted display — into a wearable architecture that keeps the operator's hands free and cognitive load low.

Sensor Fusion Overview

Three independent sensing modalities are fused in real time to produce a single, reliable detection picture.

24 GHz + 60 GHz

mmWave Radar

  • 24 GHz for wall penetration through drywall and wood
  • 60 GHz for fine motion detection and micro-movement classification
  • TI IWR6843 module: 4 receive + 3 transmit antennas
  • 60–64 GHz coverage with integrated signal processing
  • Detects breathing, movement, and positional changes
Intel RealSense L515

LiDAR Geometry

  • 23 million depth points per second
  • 0.25m to 9m operational range
  • 70° × 55° field of view
  • Line-of-sight room mapping and furniture detection
  • Provides structural context for radar signal interpretation
NVIDIA Jetson Edge-AI

AI Processing

  • Fuses radar and LiDAR data streams in real time
  • ML classifier distinguishes human movement from noise
  • Filters appliances, pets, and vibration false positives
  • Computes target confidence scores (high / medium / low)
  • Generates target trajectory estimates

Confidence-Based Target Visualization

Rather than presenting a binary "person detected / not detected" output, iSpy uses a probabilistic confidence model. Each detected target is displayed with a confidence level that reflects the quality and consistency of the underlying sensor data.

High Confidence
Strong, consistent signal across multiple sensors. Probable human movement detected.
Medium Confidence
Partial signal match. Movement detected but classification is less certain. Proceed with elevated caution.
Low Confidence
Weak or ambiguous signal. May indicate distant movement, material interference, or environmental noise.

Tactical Alerts and Reduced Cognitive Load

iSpy is designed to minimize the cognitive burden on operators. The forearm display shows only essential information — target dots, distance rings, and confidence indicators. Haptic vibrations and audio tones provide immediate alerts without requiring the operator to look at the screen.

This design philosophy directly addresses a key concern in tactical technology adoption: tools that demand attention at the wrong moment create risk rather than reducing it.

Haptic Alerts

Vibration patterns distinguish detection confidence levels without audio.

Audio Tones

Configurable audio alerts for high-confidence detections.

Forearm Display

Simplified minimap with target dots, rings, and confidence indicators.

Hands-Free Operation

Wearable design keeps both hands free for weapons and equipment.
