FIDO B2
Bio-Threat Detection & Collection
The FLIR Fido B2 is a continuous, real-time air monitor that detects bio-agents in less than 60 seconds. Fido B2 uses IBAC technology to reliably detect all four classes of bio-threats with low false alarm rates and no consumables. As the most mature and widely deployed biological trigger on the market today, the Fido B2 offers a proven, field-ready solution for bio-aerosol monitoring.
