Handheld radiation survey meters are portable instruments that measure the activity or the exposure rate from radioactive material. Responders use these devices where radioactivity is suspected to be present in order to locate or assess the intensity of the radioactivity. Included reports: highlight, market survey report, summary, technote, focus group report, and assessment report.

Air-purifying respirators (APRs) remove particulate matter, gases, or vapors from the atmosphere. They can be used to protect responders in environments contaminated with chemical or biological agents, radiological or nuclear materials, or other hazardous materials when the correct canister is used. Included reports: highlight; summary; focus group report; market survey report; assessment report.

Air-purifying escape respirators (APERs) are designed to protect users from breathing harmful gases, vapors, and fumes. They may be used by responders or civilians for the limited amount of time needed to exit a contaminated area and reach fresh air. Included reports: highlight; summary, focus group report and market survey report.

Aerial radiation detection systems (ARDs) consist of multiple components with one or more detector modules, a control unit, a data acquisition system, a GPS sensor, and an altitude sensor. ARDs are mounted on aircraft, allowing responders to survey large areas for radiation. Included reports: highlight and assessment report.

Active shooter training simulators are designed to support the training law enforcement personnel on effective responses during active shooter scenarios.  These simulators provide responders with realistic training in a controlled environment. Included reports: highlight, technote, and technology guide.

Acoustic surveillance devices are used to gain real-time data necessary to respond to criminal activities and emergency incidents.
