Force Protection
Personnel survivability enhancement built into every layer of the system architecture.
Integrated Situational Awareness System
POINTERS GAARD™ unifies real-time vital monitoring, multi-hazard environmental sensing, resilient communications and AI-assisted command connectivity — in a single, modular, combat-ready platform.
About the Platform
Personnel operating in complex environments today carry multiple separate devices for vital monitoring, hazard detection, positioning and communication. POINTERS GAARD™ closes this critical operational gap — integrating every capability into a single modular platform with real-time command centre connectivity, AI-assisted decision support and resilient multi-channel communication, including satellite link for GNSS-degraded and EMCON environments.
Personnel survivability enhancement built into every layer of the system architecture.
Operational support through continuous, distributed awareness at the individual level.
Environmental awareness across biometrics, atmosphere, gases, radiation and RF spectrum.
Multi-channel communication support — mesh, LTE and satellite — engineered for contested environments.
Operational decision support at squad and command level — turning sensor data into action.
Interoperability capabilities aligned with NATO operational concepts and standards.
Helmet Gear
For the first time, a ballistic helmet integrates real-time vital monitoring, multi-hazard environmental sensing, resilient communications and AI-assisted command connectivity — in a single combat-ready system. Developed jointly by Šestan Busch, manufacturer of over 3 million helmets for 60+ nations, and Pointers d.o.o., Croatia's defence technology company.
Smart Tactical Systems
Two configurations. One ecosystem. Modular body-mounted units designed for military personnel, first responders, civil protection teams and critical infrastructure operators in demanding operational environments.

Sectors of Application
Why Pointers Guardian™
Pointers d.o.o. is a Croatian defence technology company developing POINTERS GAARD™ — an integrated multi-sensor survivability, force protection and situational awareness platform for military personnel, first responders and critical infrastructure operators.
First ballistic helmet to integrate vital monitoring, hazard sensing, communications and AI connectivity in one system.
Joint development with Šestan Busch — over 3 million helmets manufactured for 60+ nations.
Designed and produced in the EU, with EMCON-compatible operation and satellite fallback for the harshest conditions.
Scalable to mission requirements. Dual-use capable: military, special police, CBRN units and critical infrastructure.
Quality Commitment
“Platform developed through the collaboration of European and U.S. engineers, in alignment with NATO operational concepts and interoperability requirements—a dual-use technology solution designed for both military and civilian emergency response environments.”

Designed and produced in the EU
Team & Leadership
Krunoslav Weinpert has worked in SMD communication technology since 1986 — nearly four decades of hands-on engineering, beginning under the mentorship of engineers whose technical lineage traced back to Apollo-era space communication systems. That early grounding in precision electronics became a lifelong discipline.
His own service as a soldier during Croatia's Homeland War gave him direct, first-hand insight into the gap between what a soldier carries and what a soldier actually needs in the field — the gap POINTERS GAARD™ is built to close.
The development team pairs highly qualified engineers — across embedded systems, RF and satellite communications, sensor design and AI — with senior military advisors: high-ranking officers with over 40 years of military experience, including veterans who served in Croatia's Homeland War from its earliest days. This combination of deep technical expertise and decades of operational command shapes every design decision.
Development is further supported by a research partnership with the Ruđer Bošković Institute — Croatia's leading scientific institution — and built on components sourced from leading EU, US, Japanese, Korean and UK technology providers. Proven global technology, engineered in Croatia.
