Measurable performance for elementally improved real-world awareness

REDefining Radar Detection

Escort Radar detectors are now among the fastest radar detector on the market. Backed by both lab and field testing, our latest firmware updates refreshes your radar detectors with performance improvements that translate into the real-world usability and accuracy that you depend on.

Breakthrough Ka Band performance

At highway speeds, every tenth of a second counts. With revolutionary response times, you have more time to react—which can mean the difference between evasive action and a possible citation.

This improvement required fundamental firmware optimization to coax even more performance out of the already advanced signal processing architecture in the guts of your Escort radar detector. Field testing and precision timing equipment was required for validation, as human perception simply cannot measure the difference accurately enough.

With these firmware releases, expect faster performance than our top competitors across all Ka Band segments with the K Filtering setting off.

Adaptive K Band filtering

The new K Filter toggle gives enthusiasts unprecedented control over their detection experience, with measurable performance differences for each scenario.

K Filter ON (Quiet Mode):

Response time: 0.6-0.7 second average.

Dramatically reduced false alerts from door openers, security systems. Ideal for urban driving and daily commuting.

K Filter OFF (Maximum Performance): 

Sub-0.5 second response times, zero compromise detection—every signal triggers an alert perfect for rural highways and spirited driving.

Perfect POP detection

While the competition detects POP signals 8 out of 10 times on average, Escort radar detectors achieves a perfect 10/10 score—100% detection rate across all POP radar configurations. This means that our radar detectors can now reliably beat radar guns that are specifically designed to defeat radar detection with POP technology.
Radar detector testing

Police use POP to fire a brief radar burst to clock your speed before switching to continuous wave for the citation. While most detectors do well at detecting these, many often miss these critical first moments. With our perfect score in this category, you can rest assured that your radar detector will not miss these bursts, giving you more road awareness and more time to respond.

Our updated POP processing recognizes ultra-brief radar signatures that last mere milliseconds, providing advance warning before the officer commits to the traffic stop. This is particularly effective in speed traps.  

Advanced CAS filtering

Adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automatic emergency braking systems operate on frequencies that trigger traditional radar detectors constantly. Escort Radar detectors effectively distinguish between automotive safety systems and actual police radar signatures. The result is a detector that works seamlessly in today's technology-saturated traffic environment. This means you can rest assured that even when driving in heavy traffic, your detector can pick out genuine threats, not just another car's safety system

Enhanced situational awareness

Improved Arrow Transitions: Directional indicators now respond more quickly to threat vector changes, providing real-time awareness of the location of a radar source. The improved response eliminates lag and creates a smoother transition of threat location. 

OnStar/Wi-Fi conflict resolution

Eliminated the connectivity interruption that prevented seamless firmware updates in certain GM vehicles equipped with OnStar systems.

Backed by measurable data

The performance of these firmware updates have been validated using precision testing equipment and in-depth field testing. These advances represent a significant leap forward, and will result in heightened usability, reliability, and accuracy of detection for our customers. 

Each detector undergoes controlled testing with precision testing equipment and standardized testing routes.

To further transparency, we encourage independent testing by respected members of the radar detector community and have published testing results papers to summarize our testing methodology to make sure these improvements will stand up to the most rigorous third-party verification. 

ESCORT Redline 360c

An evolution in radar detection technology, this firmware update refreshes the performance of your Redline 360c to combat the ongoing 'arms race' of police radar techniques and technology. We built this update specifically to meet and exceed the high standards of our customer base, enhancing response times, filtering, and range in real-world scenarios.

ESCORT MAX 360 & 360c MKII

An already exceptional detector becomes an extraordinary value proposition with a firmware update engineered to optimize the performance of your MAX 360c MKII or MAX 360 MKII radar detector. Response times, filtering capability, and detection range have all been improved over the previous firmware iteration.
