Smith Myers’ ARTEMIS systems are engineered to deliver fast, accurate mobile phone detection and geolocation from airborne platforms. Using just two low-profile antennas, ARTEMIS can locate phones without relying on traditional ground-based cellular networks—making it ideal for search and rescue missions in remote or disaster-affected areas. The system’s dual proprietary geolocation techniques ensure precise tracking, while embedded mapping and geofencing streamline operations and reduce crew workload. ARTEMIS also supports direct communication with detected devices, allowing for mission-critical interactions in real time.
