Wrap Technologies (NASDAQ: WRAP) has launched WrapShield, an autonomous defense and public safety platform designed to unify threat detection, AI-assisted decision support, and response technologies into a single operating architecture. The platform is intended to help government agencies integrate existing and future sensors, artificial intelligence capabilities, and response technologies across defense, public safety, homeland security, critical infrastructure, and border security applications, with an initial focus on counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS).
In conjunction with the platform launch, Wrap Technologies announced a strategic investment in Israel-based Frenel Imaging Ltd. and an exclusive U.S. and NATO license for Frenel’s proprietary TPiCore thermal-polarimetric imaging technology. This technology will serve as the initial sensing layer for WrapShield, providing advanced detection capabilities. The company expects Frenel to be the first of multiple planned investments supporting the platform, which is designed to expand across a range of autonomous security and surveillance markets.
The WrapShield platform represents a significant step forward for Wrap Technologies, which is known for its non-lethal BolaWrap 150 device and other public safety solutions. The company’s portfolio also includes the Wrap Reality immersive training platform, WrapVision body-worn camera system, WrapTactics training programs, and next-generation C-UAS solutions like PAN-DA and the 1KC Kinetic Anti-Drone Cassette. By integrating these technologies into a unified platform, Wrap aims to provide comprehensive solutions for complex security challenges.
Wrap’s BolaWrap 150, used by over 1,000 agencies across the U.S. and in 60 countries, is a non-lethal restraint device that deploys a multi-sensory distraction followed by restraint, reducing the risk of injury to officers and subjects. The company’s training programs are certified by the International Association of Directors of Law Enforcement Standards and Training (IADLEST).
The WrapShield platform and the investment in Frenel Imaging underscore Wrap Technologies’ commitment to expanding its capabilities in autonomous security and surveillance. The full press release is available at https://ibn.fm/x5x1J.
