Optex is the Japanese perimeter-detection specialist whose REDWALL outdoor PIR sensors and REDSCAN LiDAR analytics handle the outdoor surveillance scenarios where conventional motion detection generates too many false alarms to be useful. REDSCAN scans a 2D plane across the protected area and rejects motion outside the detection zone \u2014 eliminating the tree-shadow and small-animal false-positives that plague PIR-only deployments. For perimeter security at critical infrastructure, transit, and industrial sites, Optex is the integrator-default for actionable outdoor detection.

\"REDWALL

REDWALL outdoor PIR detectors

The REDWALL outdoor PIR detectors deliver long-range outdoor motion detection with the multi-curtain detection geometry that distinguishes a person crossing the perimeter from an animal walking past. Ranges of 12m to 200m depending on the model, with anti-mask, anti-defeat, and temperature-compensated pyroelectric sensing for the outdoor weather variability that defeats indoor-grade PIRs.

\"REDSCAN

REDSCAN RLS-series LiDAR

The REDSCAN RLS-2020 and RLS-3060 LiDAR scanners deliver 2D-plane intrusion detection \u2014 the sensor sweeps a laser across the protected zone and detects intrusion based on the time-of-flight return profile. For high-value perimeter, rooftop, and museum-protection deployments where false-alarm tolerance is zero, REDSCAN is the technology of last resort that customers reach for after PIR alone proves inadequate.

\"BX

BX and AX dual-tech detectors

The BX-series and AX-series detectors pair PIR with microwave detection in dual-technology mode \u2014 both sensors must register motion before an alarm trip, eliminating the false-alarm sources that defeat either technology alone (HVAC airflow for PIR, distant moving objects for microwave). For warehouses, large interior spaces, and high-ceiling applications, dual-tech is the default specification.

\"Fiber-sense

Fiber-sense perimeter cable

The Optex fiber-sense perimeter cable detects intrusion as fiber-optic light-pattern disturbance along the cable run \u2014 vibration, cutting, climbing, and bending all register as distinct signatures the system processor can classify. For critical-infrastructure, military, and high-value-site perimeter detection, fiber-sense is the standard for long-runs (multi-kilometer) where conventional PIR deployment is impractical.

\"VMS

VMS integration

Optex sensors integrate with Genetec, Milestone, Avigilon, and Network Optix VMS platforms \u2014 perimeter-intrusion events correlate directly to camera bookmarks and operator alert workflows. The architecture turns the sensor event from a raw alarm into an actionable, video-verified situation that operators can triage without leaving the VMS console.
