Hensoldt enhances mission management with Artemis
EuroNav 7, integrated with Artemis, identifies, locates and interacts with cell phones, enabling help for people in distress and support in disaster control, in the fight against people smuggling and other maritime patrol ops.
EuroNav 7 can now also display the location of mobile phones on its mission map.

Sensor solutions provider Hensoldt's EuroNav 7 mission system for critical airborne applications is now enhanced with the integration of the Artemis mobile phone detection, location and communication system from Smith Myers.

"This is a winning combination that is making waves in the avionics industry. Tailored for the helicopter elite, this powerhouse duo is more than just a tool. It's an exclusive pass to a new level of control and safety," says Hensoldt managing director Michael Gröninger. "This partnership of proven systems is targeting expansion worldwide across a growing customer base deploying essential systems for search and rescue missions, where every move is executed with precision."

EuroNav 7, integrated with Artemis, stands out in its ability to identify, locate and interact with cell phones. This feature not only enables effective help for people in distress, but also provides first-class support in disaster control and in the fight against people smuggling and supporting other maritime patrol operations. The system also detects the cell phone's country of origin making it the perfect tool for detecting border intrusions.

"Artemis interacts with and geolocates the cell phone quickly and precisely using the cellular protocol itself. EuroNav 7 displays this information and enables the automatic steering of other sensors onto the cell phone's location. The location of thousands of handsets can be established very quickly and displayed on EuroNav 7," explains Andrew Munro, managing director of Smith Myers.

EuroNav takes the lead by integrating a full range of operational features that perfectly complement the Artemis system, a combination now available via the off-the-shelf EuroNav 7 product:

- Precision identification and location: EuroNav 7 with Artemis allows aircrew to precisely identify and locate cellular handsets with unmatchable speed.

- Enhanced situational awareness: The combination of mass mapping and geofencing facilitates operations in complex environments.

- Extended range and flexibility: With a range of more than 30 km the limit of use is extended, allowing the sensor suite to see further quicker, and more accurately.

- Integrated features: with integrated AIS, cellular and maritime data can be overlaid in real time. COSPAS SARSAT identifies and locates emergency and personal locator beacons.
