Knowing where the radiation is within that space, in real time, without putting a person in harm\u2019s way, is an operational game-changer,\u201d said Stefan Hrabar, co-founder and chief strategy officer at Emesent. \u201cOur partnership with Teledyne FLIR Defense brings together GPS-denied mapping and radiation detection in a way that directly addresses what CBRN operators need in the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cTeledyne FLIR builds platforms trusted for the most demanding CBRN missions in the world,\u201d said Tung Ng, vice president of Unmanned Systems North America for Teledyne FLIR Defense. \u201cWorking with Emesent, we\u2019ll be able to give operators a fused, spatial picture of the threat environment they simply haven\u2019t had access to before.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThis is the direction the whole field is heading in, and we\u2019re delivering it now through certified third-party payloads like Hovermap,\u201d Ng added.<\/p>\n<p>\nEmesent\u2019s Hovermap represents the firm\u2019s success in utilizing Teledyne FLIR Defense\u2019s open-architecture, partner-enabled development ecosystem. Certified payloads are assessed for mechanical fit, electrical interface, software compatibility, and flight performance, giving customers confidence in mission-tailored capabilities from a growing partner ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe partnership also establishes a technical foundation for future capability development. Both companies are actively developing autonomous navigation capabilities and expanding multi-sensor fusion beyond radiation to additional CBRN detection modalities.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe integrated systems will be on display at Teledyne FLIR Defense booth #1724 at Modern Day Marine 2026, April 28\u201330, at Marine Corps Base Quantico.<\/p>\n<p><b>About Emesent<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nEmesent is an Australian-headquartered technology company with a U.S. office in Centennial, Colorado, and the maker of the Hovermap autonomous mapping platform.
