Director of Safety, Redrock Safety

Event Safety Informed by Real-Time Detection

"The Sick New World deployment demonstrated how fixed sensing, handheld confirmation, and command-room visibility can support faster, more informed event safety decisions. Having this vital information readily available to the event commander, improves situational awareness and allows for well-informed tactical decision-making."

White Paper

Venue Protection for Events at Every Scale

Proof-of-concept results from the Sick New World Festival, in collaboration with Redrock Entertainment — chemical and radiological detection for live events.
