Blickfeld: The Smart 3D Security LiDAR QbProtect – GSA25 Finalist Shortlist Highlight
The Smart 3D Security LiDAR Blickfeld QbProtect enables reliable detection of unauthorized entry threats in complex physical security applications, minimizing false alarms through object size-based threat assessment, and facilitating rapid response to real security incidents through rule-based alarm generation.
It detects objects through on-device 3D data processing in real-time and allows seamless integration with industry-standard interfaces. The built-in tampering and malfunction detection also ensures the stable operation of the system. As a result, the sensor is suitable for a more reliable protection of critical infrastructure.
Blickfeld QbProtect combines LiDAR hardware and software, offering an end-to-end solution for threat detection and alarm generation for various industries. The problem with the technology currently in use, such as cameras, radar, and thermal sensors, is the high false alarm rate. With these technologies, even small animals and vegetation trigger alarms, which can easily lead to dozens or even more false alarms per day. In addition, object detection is severely limited at night or during snowfall and other environmental conditions. This can be remedied by supporting the security systems with 3D LiDAR technology, which recognizes the size of intruders and can be configured so that alarms are only triggered when a certain object size is reached. One solution that is particularly easy to integrate into existing security systems is Blickfeld QbProtect. With its software integrated into the device and tailored to zone, fence, and façade monitoring in perimeter protection, it ensures unrivalled reliability in object detection.
