Rapid survivor localization and communication inside collapsed or inaccessible structures
The TFN VS05 Audio & Video Life Detector is a professional victim search and rescue system designed for post-disaster operations in collapsed buildings, earthquake ruins, explosions, tunnels, and other hazardous environments. Combining vibration signal detection, real-time video inspection, and two-way voice communication, the VS05 helps rescue teams rapidly locate trapped survivors while minimizing blind excavation and operational risk.
- Vibration signal detection through concrete, metal, and rubble
- Two-way voice communication with trapped survivors
- Infrared waterproof camera for zero-light environments
- Flexible probe system with over 25m total reach capability
- 10.1-inch HD display with recording and playback functions
- Optional 4G/WiFi remote video transmission for command coordination
Vibration Signal Detection for Survivor Localization
The VS05 uses a dedicated microprocessor and high-sensitivity vibration detection technology to identify weak human-generated signals transmitted through solid structures such as concrete slabs, steel, wood, and collapsed debris.
The system can detect sounds and vibrations including tapping, knocking, scratching, or shouting while filtering environmental noise generated by wind, machinery, or surrounding activity. This allows rescue teams to narrow search areas more efficiently and reduce unnecessary excavation during time-critical rescue operations.
Two-Way Audio Communication & Recording
The integrated two-way voice communication system enables rescuers to communicate directly with trapped survivors in real time. Operators can confirm survivor responsiveness, provide instructions, and offer reassurance during rescue procedures.
The system also supports audio recording and playback, allowing teams to review weak signals or preserve operational records for analysis, documentation, or training purposes.
Infrared Waterproof Camera for Low-Light Operations
The VS05 includes interchangeable infrared and voice probes designed for operation in low-visibility and zero-light environments.
The infrared waterproof probe features:
- IP67 waterproof protection
- Diameter below 25mm
- 8 infrared LEDs
- Over 6 meters of visibility in darkness
- Submersion capability up to 2 meters
This enables inspection inside flooded voids, underground spaces, collapsed basements, pipelines, and nighttime disaster environments.
Flexible Probe System with Long-Distance Reach
The telescopic rod extends from approximately 1.05m to 2.21m, while the probe tip can be manually bent to navigate around obstacles, corners, or narrow structural gaps.
An optional 20-meter extension cable increases total operational reach to more than 25 meters, allowing deep inspection inside rubble voids, boreholes, ventilation shafts, and inaccessible confined spaces without requiring direct personnel entry.
Large 10.1-Inch Display with Recording & Playback
The VS05 features a 10.1-inch color LCD display with adjustable brightness, contrast, and color settings for outdoor and field operation.
The monitor supports:
- Real-time video display
- Recording and playback
- Multi-language interface
- Adjustable recording settings
- Remote-control operation
The integrated sun visor improves visibility during daylight rescue operations.
Optional 4G & WiFi Remote Video Transmission
Optional wireless transmission modules support real-time audio and video sharing through 4G, WiFi, or local hotspot connection.
Multiple devices can simultaneously monitor live feeds, enabling remote coordination between on-site rescue teams, command centers, structural engineers, and medical personnel during large-scale emergency operations.
