Wrap Technologies (NASDAQ: WRAP) is advancing its Non-Lethal Response platform with the introduction of WrapShield and an exclusive U.S. and NATO license to Frenel Imaging's TPiCore thermal-polarimetric sensing technology, the company announced July 28, 2026. The moves add an AI-enabled detection layer to the company's existing suite of remote restraint, training, and evidence management tools, beginning with counter-drone applications.
High-profile use-of-force incidents have driven costly litigation, strained community trust, and increased scrutiny of how officers are equipped and trained. That environment has pushed agencies toward tools that create time, distance, and tactical advantage, particularly in encounters involving individuals in mental- or behavioral-health crises. The customer base has widened beyond traditional policing into corrections, campus safety, healthcare, and transportation security.
Wrap Technologies built its business around closing the response-to-resistance gap with technology that reduces injury to everyone involved. The company describes itself as a global public safety technology provider developing policing solutions for law enforcement and security personnel across the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific. Its flagship BolaWrap 150 Remote Restraint Device, along with a growing portfolio of training and evidence-management tools, is designed to give officers non-lethal options.
With the July 2026 launch of WrapShield and an exclusive U.S. and NATO license to Frenel Imaging's TPiCore thermal-polarimetric sensing, Wrap is adding an AI-enabled detection layer, beginning with counter-UAS. WrapShield is designed to provide a physical barrier and integrated restraint capabilities, while the TPiCore technology enhances detection of concealed objects and threats through advanced thermal and polarimetric imaging. The combination is expected to improve situational awareness and response options for security personnel.
Pressure on agencies to adopt response-to-resistance alternatives has intensified, widening demand for tools that can control situations without injury or pain rather than provoke confrontations. Wrap's portfolio spans the BolaWrap 150, Wrap Reality training simulator, Wrap Vision evidence management, Wrap Tactics consulting, and counter-drone solutions. The company's approach integrates technology, training, and tactics to provide a comprehensive non-lethal response system.
The exclusive license for TPiCore sensing positions Wrap to address emerging threats in public safety and security, particularly in counter-drone operations where detection and identification are critical. The technology's ability to see through obscurants and differentiate materials adds a layer of intelligence that complements existing tools.
This expansion reflects a broader shift in public safety toward technology that de-escalates situations and reduces harm. As agencies seek alternatives to traditional use-of-force options, Wrap's innovations could play a key role in shaping modern policing and security practices.
