Minehound VMR3G – Dual-Sensor Mine Detector
The VMR3G "Minehound" dual-sensor detector is internationally proven. It is ideal for the simultaneous detection of metal and metal-free objects. This is a decisive advantage e.g. for the detection of IEDs.
- Ground Penetrating Radar and Metal Detection
- Integrated graphic display for simplified operation
- Rugged mechanical design with high-quality carbon telescoping carrying bar
- High sensitivity for high-efficiency soil compensation
- Detection of metal and metal-free objects such as improvised explosive devices (IEDs)

The VMR3G "Minehound" dual-sensor detector is internationally proven. It is ideal for the simultaneous detection of metal and metal-free objects. This is a decisive advantage e.g. for the detection of IEDs.
The integrated colour graphic display enables user-friendly operation and shortens the time for an initial training as well as the familiarization after a longer period of inactivity.
The display provides an overview of all parameters and signals of the metal detector (MD) and ground-penetrating radar (GPR). The visualization of the ground-penetrating radar alarm offers easy to read depth information on the detected object. In addition, the device settings are available in numerous languages.
The VMR3G is also characterized by its mechanical features: The use of carbon and glass fibre-reinforced plastic makes it extremely rugged and durable.
It meets high standards for military mine clearance and humanitarian demining.
Suitable for the following searches
-
Mines
Suited for mine detection. Thanks to maximum sensitivity, also reacts to mines with low or no metal content.
-
UXO
Ideal for shallow searching for all types of metal (e. g. unexploded ordnances, submunitions, etc.).
-
IED
Thanks to a ground-penetrating radar, it is ideal for efficiently searching for objects with low or no metal content.
