Ground Observing Reconnaissance Transmitter

GORT (Ground Observing Reconnaissance Transmitter) detects, follows, and tracks people within a protected area. If the person moves to the right, then GORT rotates to the right. If the person moves to the left, GORT rotates to the left. If more than one person is present, GORT will oscillate between the multiple individuals.

Any burglar or criminal will think twice before committing a crime if they know that their presence has been detected and they are being tracked. The GORT has Completely wireless, passive infrared personnel sensors that detect human presence and inform the GORT about it.

The standard GORT package includes four wireless motion sensors, a CCTV camera mount as well as connections for 12vdc camera power and video signal. The Ground Observing Reconnaissance Transmitter (GORT) technology represents the world's first fully robotic security device. On its own it will detect and respond to the presence of personnel within a given protected area. The standard model comes equipped with a 200 bulb super bright LED array. 

The GORT unit can be programmed to supply an "Alert Output" based upon selectable criteria determined by the end user. GORT will send out an RF signal to an optional Voice Alert receiver/speaker (within 1000 feet). The Voice Alert receiver can make a voice announcement on site and trigger a call to a monitoring center. 

The basic GORT model BD-LED has been upgraded to include an option for off-site control ... potentially from anywhere in the world. Using the new controller interface card, any device that can deliver dry contact closure of COM to N/O will be able to trigger the GORT unit to rotate left or right as directed by an operator. The new interface cards will be easily accessible in the power hook-up box and contain terminals for four NEG feeds as well as inputs for the four zones. Applying a negative feed to any input will prompt the GORT unit to respond as if a sensor had triggered the unit. At the same time however, the GORT will not be off-line and will in fact continue to respond to any field activity that might occur. The actual Controller Interface card, along with it's companion Auxiliary Hook-up card (used for auxiliary power and Alarm Output connections) can be easily detached and re-attached to the GORT unit using convenient, color coded RJ-45 cables. This allows an installer to remove the cards for easy wiring hook-up and then quickly plug them back into the system for full operation.

GORT Construction Site Security

GORT systems installed in key locations around a construction site will provide a level of security beyond the capabilities of a security guard or stand-alone camera systems. Put the GORT systems on power poles or on mobile trailers near the entrances to the construction site and next to building materials to provide maximum construction site security. When an intruder enters the site or approaches the building materials the GORT light will turn on and track with them as they move through the secured zone. By incorporating a camera with the GORT the event can be recorded and a guard or monitoring service can be notified. The light provided by the GORT system will enhance the video image and provide a high quality video record of the event. Because of the movement of the GORT system the intruder will believe that he is being watched and recorded and he will leave the site.

GORT Auto Dealership Security

GORT systems installed around an auto dealership will deter the theft of vehicles and car parts while allowing visitors to comfortably shop after closing hours. GORT provides the ultimate auto dealership security solution to deter the theft of vehicles, air-bags, tires and wheels, hood ornaments or other parts while cars are on the front lot or in the service area. When a thief enters the secured zones the GORT light will turn on and follow him. The light will catch his attention even on a well lit lot and when the light tracks his movement he will realize that his intended crime is being watched and recorded. When a customer enters the dealership after closing hours the GORT light will turn on and track their movement. The customer will not be concerned that the "guard" is watching them shop because they are not doing anything wrong.

GORT School Security

GORT systems installed around school grounds will deter vandalism and theft of computers more effectively than a security guard or stand-alone camera system. The GORT light will always look like it is being operated by a human. Every half hour the GORT light will turn on and do a "Sentinel Scan" of its secured zone. Criminals will wait for the school security guard to go around to the other side of the building before they conduct their crime but with GORT constantly on watch the opportunity to conduct the crime will not arise. Security cameras will record events, but at night, when most crimes take place, the poor quality of the video image will make it difficult to identify the criminals. If criminals don't know that there is a camera system they will conduct their crime anyway. The GORT light will attract their attention and make them believe that school security is watching and recording the event and they will leave before the crime is committed. GORT school security systems can provide visual confirmation to a monitoring company before law enforcement is called out.
