Existing through-wall detection systems were designed for a different era. iSpy is built for today's operational requirements — wearable, AI-enabled, and affordable enough for widespread departmental deployment.
The through-wall detection market has historically been dominated by expensive, specialist systems designed for military and intelligence applications. These systems — the Xaver 400, the Range-R, the InSight — were not designed for routine law enforcement deployment. They are heavy, expensive, and require dedicated operators.
The result is a market gap: the technology exists to improve officer safety in high-risk entries, but it has not been accessible to the departments that need it most. A $47,500 radar system cannot be deployed at scale across a mid-sized police department.
iSpy addresses this gap directly. At a target price of $4,000–$5,000 per unit, it is affordable for individual officer deployment. Its wearable design eliminates the need for a dedicated operator. Its AI classification layer makes the output interpretable without specialist training.

Every competitor system requires the operator to hold a device against the wall or set up a tripod. iSpy is worn on the body, freeing both hands for weapons and equipment. This is not a minor convenience — it is a fundamental operational difference.
Legacy systems display raw radar returns. Interpreting those returns requires training and experience. iSpy's AI classifier translates raw sensor data into actionable intelligence — target dots with confidence levels — that any trained officer can interpret without specialist knowledge.
No competitor combines mmWave radar with LiDAR geometry mapping. The LiDAR component provides structural context that dramatically improves radar signal interpretation and reduces false positives from environmental sources.
iSpy is the only through-wall detection system designed with compliance logging built in from the ground up. Activation logging, encrypted storage, and role-based access control are not afterthoughts — they are core architectural requirements.
At $4,000–$5,000 per unit, iSpy is the only through-wall detection system priced for widespread departmental deployment. The Xaver 400 costs $47,500. The Range-R costs $6,000–$9,000 but lacks AI and wearability. iSpy delivers more capability at a lower cost.
iSpy does not claim to show you exactly where people are. It provides confidence-weighted detections that support officer judgment rather than replacing it. This honest output model is both more accurate and more legally defensible than binary detection claims.
