By accommodating two users simultaneously, this system fosters collaboration and teamwork, amplifying the effectiveness of treasure hunting expeditions. With synchronized operation and expanded coverage, partners can explore remote landscapes with greater efficiency, maximizing the chances of uncovering valuable treasures.
This search mode is designed for two users to operate simultaneously, using a set of copper handles. Each handle features two copper wires: one handle has ports for connecting to a linking unit via cable to the Long-Range unit, while the other handle, held by the second user, does not contain ports.
After selecting this system from the long-range search submenu, users can adjust the search settings in the same manner as outlined in the single person system.
3- Ionic / Ion System
Leveraging ionic technology, this system explores the hidden realm of atmospheric ions to uncover buried treasures and ancient relics.
By analyzing subtle variations in ion concentrations, the ionic system detects anomalies that indicate hidden treasures, guiding explorers to potential hotspots with impressive accuracy. Its capability to penetrate the earth’s surface and locate metallic objects makes it an essential tool for both archaeologists and treasure hunters.
Adopting an eco-friendly approach, the Ion system transforms how explorers discover hidden riches. By analyzing atmospheric ionization patterns, it identifies areas of increased ion concentrations, signaling the presence of treasures buried below. Its non-invasive method reduces ecological disruption, making it ideal for conscientious adventurers dedicated to preserving the natural environment while pursuing exciting discoveries.
This system, featuring two modes (Ionic and Ion), utilize a new Ionic unit that connects wirelessly to the main unit.
The Ionic unit employs an I.B.I sensor to detect signals from buried targets and displays two visual indicators on its screen: Target and Cavity.
These indicators appear as 2D vertical progress bars, showing percentage values based on received signals. The Target progress bar is color-coded from green to red, while the Cavity progress bar ranges from green to blue, depending on signal strength.
The primary difference between the Ionic and Ion modes is that in Ion mode, only the Target progress bar is active, meaning the device focuses solely on detecting metal targets and ignores cavity signals.
4 – Bionic System
Combining advanced biometric sensors with innovative algorithms, the bionic system explores new possibilities for treasure detection by utilizing biological signatures. By analyzing subtle physiological cues from living organisms or organic materials, this system uncovers hidden treasures with exceptional accuracy, even in difficult environments like dense forests or underwater settings.
This search system operates similarly to the ionic search system, but with a key difference: it captures bionic signals from specific metallic objects, such as gold. The search is then focused on detecting bionic signals from similar metal objects buried in the surrounding area. In contrast to the ionic system, which conducts a random search, the bionic system targets predefined signals based on a specific type of target.
To capture the initial signal, the user points the I.B.I Sensor head at the metal object of the desired target type and press the start button on the device handle to set the target type.
Users can stabilize the device’s direction toward the scanned object using the laser light, which ensures precise alignment for signal detection.
The bionic system features intuitive on-screen indicators that guide users during the detection process.
Green Motion Circle: When no signals are detected, a green motion circle will appear, indicating that the sensor is active but not picking up any relevant signals.
Red Indicator: If a signal similar to the previously captured target is detected, the indicator will stabilize and turn red. This is accompanied by an audio alert, signaling that a potential target has been found.
These indicators help users accurately track the device’s direction towards the metal object, utilizing a laser light for precise alignment. If a signal appears, users can confirm its accuracy by revisiting the initial metal object and repeating the process.
