Meant for every day.
Made for emergencies.
For events, construction sites and crisis situations – self-sufficient and ready, even when power, mobile networks and internet fail.
This is what a NIKOS announcement sounds like when it really matters.
TV commentator: “… they too have an archery division with them, and here you can see something very special. The lady on the horse even has a hunting falcon sitting on her hand.”
Announcement via NIKOS [horn]²: “Attention, attention! We have received a severe weather warning with rain, storm and thunderstorms. Please move to a safe place. Attention, attention! We have received a severe weather warning with rain, storm and thunderstorms. Please move to a safe place.”
TV commentator: “Well, I think we have just received an announcement from the safety management. There is a severe weather warning for Bad Kissingen and the organisers are now stopping the parade, because it is simply far too dangerous now – we have a thunderstorm warning with gale-force gusts, and you can imagine that the festival floats will no longer be able to continue through the town. The aim now is for the spectators to leave their places here as quickly as possible so that everyone gets through the thunderstorm unharmed.”

NIKOS is the central communication, control and monitoring platform for deployments where no fixed infrastructure can be used. In everyday operation, NIKOS is a practical platform that combines many technical functions in a single system – and in an emergency a robust safety system that simply keeps running when other systems have long since failed. Without switching systems, downtime or limitations. So you stay in control even in an emergency.
Operates without cellular, Wi-Fi, internet or satellite. Integrated up to 16 h battery life, permanent via solar. No dependency on external infrastructure
NIKOS supports normal operations – PA, lighting, communication – and switches seamlessly to safety mode in an emergency. No system restart
Scalable from a handful of modules at a city festival to 150+ units at Oktoberfest. Redistribution instead of extra costs – more safety on the same budget.
Meeting regulatory requirements and implementing the safety concept: NIKOS delivers fail-safe voice alarm and an orderly evacuation – without kilometres of cabling.
Transmission technologies compared: 100 V, fibre, mobile, satellite & DMR
Mobile announcement systems compared: radio stations, vehicle warning systems, security towers & PA
Rent NIKOS for temporary deployments where you need a reliable everyday communication platform or a fallback layer for a blackout (power failure). NIKOS is extremely robust, crisis-proof and keeps working without interruption when other systems are no longer available.
NIKOS is the fallback when public networks fail – fully autonomous, 16 h without power, optionally permanent via solar.
For engineers, authorities, technicians, organizers and users.
