Obstacle Marking System
Pearson Engineering’s Obstacle Marking System delivers a payload from a vehicle which can be used to mark safe lanes and areas.
The Pearson Engineering Obstacle Marking System is a vehicle mounted electro-pneumatic payload dispensing system most commonly used for marking the boundaries of routes and areas.
Designed to fire marker poles into the ground at controlled intervals, the Obstacle Marking System gives a host vehicle the capability to clearly mark out hazardous areas such as the edges of a minefield breached lane.
A dispenser unit enables marker poles to be fired pneumatically, either manually or automatically, into a variety of surfaces from sand and soil to asphalt and concrete at either timed or distance based intervals.
‘Marker Missions’ can be stored in the system menu to allow quick recall of settings for operations such as breach, funnel, handrail or exit marking. The display unit also gives the operator feedback on the type of payload selected and the quantity of marker poles remaining in each dispenser unit.
