Aspects that best describe Senstar:

Sensor Fusion Engine

Senstar has developed a sensor fusion engine that combines data from different sensors such as radars, infrared sensors, accelerometers and image sensors. This technology enables more accurate intrusion detection and reduces the number of false alarms. For example, the Senstar MultiSensor™ system has been awarded the Platinum Award for Best Intrusion Detection and Prevention Solution,

Integrated video management and analytics

The Senstar Symphony platform combines video management, access control and perimeter intrusion detection in a single system. It offers advanced video analytics capabilities, such as intelligent video search and alarm management, that help security personnel respond quickly to potential threats.

Wide range of perimeter protection solutions

Senstar offers a range of perimeter protection solutions, including:

• FiberPatrol® FP1150: fibre optic intrusion detection sensor with an extended detection range of up to 100 km, suitable for protecting fences, walls and buried applications.
• Senstar TC200™: thermal-visible dual video detection camera with high accuracy and low false alarm rate, suitable for outdoor area protection.
• Senstar LM100: combines perimeter intrusion detection with intelligent illumination, providing both detection and preventive protection.

Modular and scalable architecture

Senstar solutions are designed with a modular approach, allowing customers to tailor systems to their needs and expand as security requirements grow. For example, the Senstar Symphony platform is open and highly scalable, allowing the integration of different sensors and analytics tools into a single system.

Long-standing experience and global presence

With over 40 years of experience in the security industry, Senstar has built a trusted reputation for providing solutions for critical infrastructure, military facilities, prisons and other high-risk locations in more than 80 countries.

Short answer: Yes and no.

SORHEA is now part of the HIRSCH brand and operates as SORHEA by HIRSCH. While the branding has changed, the perimeter intrusion detection technologies, engineering expertise, and product portfolio developed by SORHEA continue to exist within the HIRSCH ecosystem.

For installers, this means the perimeter solutions they know are still available, but they are now supported by a broader physical security portfolio that also includes access control, centralized security management, and system integrations.

HIRSCH has built its reputation by focusing on high-security and mission-critical applications rather than mass-market security products.

Several factors contribute to its popularity:

• Proven reliability in critical infrastructure projects.
• Open architecture that simplifies integration with third-party VMS, PSIM, and access control platforms.
• Scalable solutions suitable for both small and enterprise deployments.
• Long product lifecycle and strong technical support.
• Comprehensive physical security ecosystem combining perimeter protection and access control.

For system integrators, these characteristics reduce integration complexity and provide greater flexibility when designing complex security projects.

HIRSCH provides a broad range of physical security technologies, including:

• Perimeter intrusion detection systems
• Fence-mounted detection solutions
• Active infrared barriers
• Buried and fiber-optic detection technologies
• Access control systems
• Identity and credential management
• Centralized security management platforms
• Video surveillance integration
• AI-enabled analytics and event management
• LiDAR-based perimeter detection for complex environments

Rather than supplying standalone products, HIRSCH focuses on integrating these technologies into a unified security infrastructure.

HIRSCH solutions are designed to detect threats before an intruder reaches the protected asset.

Instead of relying solely on video surveillance after an intrusion occurs, perimeter detection provides early warning, allowing operators or automated systems to respond sooner.

Integrated with access control and video management systems, HIRSCH enables:

• Faster incident verification.
• Automated camera positioning and alarm workflows.
• Improved situational awareness.
• Reduced operator workload.
• More efficient investigation using synchronized event data.

The greatest value comes from combining multiple technologies rather than deploying each system independently.

Yes.

HIRSCH solutions are designed for a wide variety of environments, including:

• Critical infrastructure
• Power plants and utilities
• Airports
• Ports
• Data centers
• Industrial facilities
• Logistics centers
• Government buildings
• Military installations
• Commercial campuses

Because HIRSCH offers several perimeter detection technologies—including fence sensors, infrared barriers, buried sensors, fiber-optic systems, and LiDAR—the appropriate solution can be selected based on terrain, environmental conditions, and operational requirements.

There is no single technology that fits every site, which is why system design remains a critical part of every deployment.

The main difference is specialization in early perimeter detection.

Unlike conventional security systems that primarily record or verify events after an intrusion, SORHEA technologies are designed to identify intrusion attempts at the perimeter, providing valuable response time before an intruder reaches buildings or critical assets.

Other key differentiators include:

• More than 35 years of perimeter security expertise.
• Multiple complementary detection technologies rather than a single sensor type.
• Low false alarm rates when properly designed and commissioned.
• Strong integration capabilities with leading VMS, PSIM, and access control platforms.
• Solutions engineered specifically for high-security applications instead of general-purpose surveillance.

For security integrators, this means greater flexibility in matching the detection technology to the site's operational needs rather than adapting the site to the limitations of a single product.

The Flasheye LiDAR system is an advanced technology that uses Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology to create detailed 3D maps of the environment. It works by emitting laser pulses and measuring the time it takes for the pulses to reflect off objects in the vicinity after impact. This data is then processed to create precise 3D point cloud maps that can be used for a variety of applications such as autonomous navigation, surveillance and environmental monitoring.

Flasheye LiDAR systems offer several key advantages, including high accuracy and precision in mapping environments, even in challenging lighting and weather conditions. They provide real-time data acquisition capabilities that allow rapid deployment and efficient monitoring of dynamic environments. In addition, Flasheye LiDAR systems are highly versatile and can be tailored to the needs of different industries including automotive, agriculture, urban planning, etc.

Flasheye offers several advantages over other sensing technologies. Unlike radar, which uses radio waves, Flasheye uses laser pulses, providing higher resolution and accuracy in mapping objects and environments. Compared to cameras, LiDAR technology is less affected by factors such as lighting conditions and can therefore be used both indoors and outdoors. In addition, LiDAR can generate 3D maps with depth information, allowing accurate measurements and object recognition.

LiDAR systems can be used in a wide range of industries and sectors. In autonomous vehicles, LiDAR is used for obstacle detection, navigation and environmental mapping. In agriculture, LiDAR can be used for precision farming, crop monitoring and yield optimisation. Other applications include infrastructure monitoring, urban planning, forestry management and disaster response.

Flasheye offers flexible integration options for its LiDAR systems, including software development kits (SDKs), APIs and compatibility with industry standard protocols. This allows seamless integration into existing platforms, software applications and hardware configurations. In addition, Flasheye provides technical support and consulting services to assist customers through the integration process and ensure optimal performance and compatibility with their systems or projects.
