WASP2 Tactical Contact Microphone

Aug. 11, 2014

Blueline Sensors LLC released the WASP2 Tactical Contact Microphone. These compact microphones can fit in the palm of your hand but instantly attach to steel doors with built-in high-strength magnets, other building partitions such as drywall or wood floors with extreme-weather adhesive tape mounts, and glass windows with small suction cups. The contact mics detect whisper-level sounds through wall, doors, windows and floors, providing critical incident negotiation teams (CINT) with enhanced situational awareness and SWAT entry teams the time-critical intelligence required to enhance officer safety. The WASP2 mic has a built-in 30 foot long cable and can drive available extension cables up to 1000 feet long, providing secure standoff operation from remote monitoring locations or incident command vehicles. 

These high-tech microphones operate by converting the imperceptible strains in a building partition created by nearby sounds directly into electrical signals. The tiny signals are amplified to a high level suitable for input to recording equipment, radios, or real time monitoring with headphones. Unlike conventional or under-door microphones, WASP2 mics do not require an opening or air-path to carry sound from the incident scene to the operator. Therefore, alerting the suspect by drilling a tell-tale hole, or otherwise exposing the operator to the incident scene is not required. Each microphone is fitted with a 3.5mm mini-phone plug ready to work with most “mic-input” audio devices (audio recorders, radio, etc). Adapters are available for use with most Android or Apple smartphones and complete tactical audio kits, containing one or more WASP2 mics, a digital audio recorder, noise-isolation headphones and all mounts and accessories are available.
