PARABOLIC ACOUSTICAL LISTENING SYSTEMS
Product Summary
SOS Parabolic Acoustical Listening Systems use innovative technology developed to significantly enhance the ability to hear and identify sounds at distances normally undetectable to the human ear. In addition to extending the effective ‘hearing’ range, the device can selectively filter out unwanted sound frequency ranges.
Extremely light and portable, the 6 inch or 10 inch unit can be paired with the newly developed filter amplification pack (AmpPac®) to create a revolutionary system. This listening system can be used to detect and locate life signs and other critical sounds during rescue operations. Or it can effectively be used for many commercial and mechanical applications.
