As laser beam attacks during protests and riots continue to rise, law enforcement officers face new challenges in ensuring their safety and protecting their vision. The use of high-powered laser beams—often directed at officers to temporarily blind and disorient them—has become a widespread tactic among hostile crowds. Without proper protection, these attacks can cause irreversible eye damage. That’s where Super Seer Lazer-Shield comes in, offering cutting-edge laser protective film solutions for riot helmets, face shields, and body shields.
However, laser protection is just one element of the full defense law enforcement needs in the field. Officers also face threats from projectiles, chemical irritants, and physical confrontations. For this reason, pairing the Lazer-Shield with Super Seer's Tactical Riot Helmets offers an unmatched level of safety, ensuring comprehensive protection in the most volatile environments.
The Growing Threat of Laser Attacks
Over the past few years, laser beam attacks have become a persistent issue for law enforcement agencies worldwide. These incidents have escalated during protests, where lasers are often used to hinder officers' ability to see and react. According to a 2020 report by NBC News, officers across the United States were targeted by laser pointers, some suffering temporary blindness and disorientation during protests. This issue has prompted urgent demand for reliable laser eye protection.
The Super Seer Lazer-Shield is specifically designed to protect against such attacks by reducing the intensity of green, blue, and violet laser beams. The shield reduces the beam’s power from 1 Watt to a harmless 1/1000 Watt, providing instant laser beam eye protection without impairing visibility during normal operations.
Super Seer Riot Helmets: A Perfect Companion to Lazer-Shield
In riot situations, officers are not only vulnerable to laser attacks but also face physical threats from projectiles, impacts, and chemical agents. For these scenarios, Super Seer Riot Helmets offer vital head protection, ensuring safety from a wide range of hazards. With a variety of models designed to meet the needs of different units, Super Seer's helmets are engineered for durability, impact resistance, and comfort.
Super Seer S1610 Riot Helmet
The S1610 Riot Helmet is designed for basic head protection, focusing on comfort and durability. Paired with the Lazer-Shield, this helmet offers clear vision in night ops while shielding officers from both physical and laser beam threats.
Super Seer S1613 Riot Helmet
The S1613 Riot Helmet provides versatile protection with modular components, including upgraded features like a Neoprene rubber liquid seal, making it ideal for situations where officers might encounter chemicals and fluids. Equipped with the Lazer-Shield, the S1613 ensures full-face laser protection without compromising usability.
Super Seer S1621 Riot Helmet
The S1621 Riot Helmet takes protection further with integrated ear and neck guards and accessory attachments that can be easily paired with Lazer-Shield Kits for additional laser beam protection. This model is perfect for tactical units requiring versatile, comprehensive riot gear.
Super Seer S1711 Ballistic Riot Helmet
For the most extreme conditions, the S1711 Ballistic Riot Helmet is built to meet NIJ Level IIIA ballistic standards, providing protection against high-velocity projectiles. When combined with Lazer-Shield technology, the S1711 creates an impenetrable barrier, protecting against ballistic threats and laser attacks simultaneously.
Comprehensive Protection in Night Operations
Nighttime operations add another layer of complexity to riot control. Visibility is crucial, but officers also need to be protected from incoming laser beams without sacrificing their ability to see clearly. Traditional laser protective gear often forces officers to wear dark-tinted visors or laser glasses, which can distort vision and cause eye strain over time. The Super Seer Lazer-Shield eliminates this issue, as it activates only when needed, ensuring a clear, unobstructed field of view during normal operation.
The Lazer-Shield fits seamlessly onto the visors of Super Seer helmets, offering a streamlined solution that doesn't interfere with regular tactical gear. When under attack, officers can simply dip their heads to engage the Lazer-Shield, protecting their vision from harmful laser beams and allowing them to quickly identify threats.
Durability Tested in Real-World Conditions
Both the Super Seer Riot Helmets and the Lazer-Shield have undergone extensive riot testing to ensure they perform under the harshest conditions. Whether facing aggressive crowds, dangerous chemicals, or projectiles, these products are engineered to withstand extreme environments without failure. The Lazer-Shield is designed to remain securely in place, even in high-stress scenarios, and the helmets offer superior impact resistance while maintaining comfort and usability.
Conclusion: Combining Lazer-Shield with Riot Helmets for Total Officer Safety
As laser attacks continue to evolve as a significant threat, it’s crucial for law enforcement agencies to invest in both laser protective gear and riot helmets to ensure their officers' safety. The Super Seer Lazer-Shield offers unparalleled protection from dangerous laser beams, while the range of Super Seer Riot Helmets ensures full coverage from impact, chemicals, and other physical threats.
