Sentinel Armatek Edge – Compact Weapon-Mounted Tracking Solution
The Sentinel Armatek Edge is a compact, Picatinny-mounted BLE micro-tracking device engineered to enhance firearm accountability, movement visibility, and post-incident reconstruction. Designed for law enforcement, private security operators, tactical teams, and responsible firearm owners, the Sentinel Edge provides continuous proximity intelligence without affecting weapon balance or handling characteristics.
Driven by the embedded Sentinel Node, the Sentinel Edge connects through the global BLE crowdsourced detection method, enabling last-seen location visibility, unauthorised movement detection, and passive activity insights whether the firearm is in storage, transit, or operational use.
Constructed from impact-resistant materials, the Edge is built to withstand recoil, vibration, weather exposure, and field abuse. Its low-profile footprint ensures no interference with aiming or tactical manipulation.
Power is provided by a CR2032 disposable lithium battery, delivering up to 12 months of operation depending on broadcast parameters and environmental conditions. This enables long-duration deployments with zero charging requirements and minimal maintenance.
Silent, durable, and operationally efficient, the Armatek Edge reinforces governance, enhances firearm oversight, and supports recovery workflows.
