Sentinel Armatek Core – Weapon-Mounted Laser & Tracking Solution
The Sentinel Armatek Core is a rugged, Picatinny-mounted BLE tracking and laser-targeting system designed to improve firearm accountability while delivering tactical aiming support in operational environments. Engineered for law enforcement units, private security teams, tactical operators and private firearm owners, the Core provides continuous BLE-based visibility of firearm movement while adding a dependable all-conditions aiming laser for rapid alignment in dynamic engagements.
At the heart of the system is the Sentinel Node, powered by a long-life CR2032 lithium battery offering up to 12 months of passive BLE tracking. This enables persistent firearm visibility, unauthorised movement detection, and last-seen location history through the global BLE crowdsourced detection method, whether the weapon is deployed, transported, or secured in an armoury.
The Core’s integrated laser module is powered by a dedicated internal rechargeable battery, delivering reliable operational performance without affecting the tracking subsystem. This battery can be recharged through the unit’s onboard charging interface, ensuring rapid operational readiness with minimal downtime.
Durable, lightweight, and engineered for recoil resistance, the Sentinel Armatek Core provides a balanced combination of accountability, targeting capability, and tactical resilience without compromising firearm handling or sight picture.
