Israel Aerospace's RES-Q-CELL detects survivors in disaster areas, using accurate geo-location of their cellular devices.

Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. (IAI) (TASE: ARSP.B1) is unveiling the RES-Q-CELL cellular search and rescue system, designed to detect survivors in disaster areas, using accurate geo-location of the survivor's cellular devices in order to rescue them as quickly as possible. RES-Q-CELL is field proven.

Res-Q-Cell supports world-wide cellular networks (GSM, UMTS, LTE) and provides passive and active capabilities by activating all cellular phones in the disaster area, and preforming quick identification and accurate location of mobile devices. The system can differentiate between those who are trapped and others. It detects mobile phones within a predefined wreckage area, identifies the mobile phones, and provides highly accurate 3-dimestional, dual axis, geo-location of survivors.

RES-Q-CELL can be tailored to specific area or country requirements and is designed to work in different scenarios including natural disasters such as earth quakes, storms, floods tsunami, and Home Land security for large scale venues, building fires, terrorist attacks, and more.

The system can be installed on a variety of platforms including commercial vehicles, armored vehicles, tactical aerostats and helicopters. It is operated from a lap top and designed to keep working even when cellular networks collapse.

IAI VP Airborne Systems and Radars Division at ELTA Systems Ltd Eyal Danan said, "RES-Q-CELL is a unique system designed to work in the most challenging environments. It is field proven and we believe that the combined state-of-the-art technologies we use in this system will enable rescue teams to operate immediately."
