Reducing Runway Risk

Tarsier is bringing a new level of safety to airports across the globe

Designed specifically to locate potentially hazardous debris on airport runways, Tarsier is bringing a new level of safety to airports across the globe. Tarsier is the world’s first runway hazard management system with fully automatic detection capabilities of foreign object debris (FOD).

Tarsier’s networked high frequency; high resolution radars sweep the runway round-the-clock for potentially hazardous objects. On detection, the integrated day/night camera zooms in to identify the item, enabling appropriate action to be taken. Images can be produced in all light levels giving operators greater confidence and greater certainty 24 hours a day.

Tarsier can detect the presence of birds and wildlife, aiding operators with their wildlife management and helping reduce the risk of bird strikes.
