The standard DSI Computer is 100% legal everywhere. Stinger DSI Computer + Radar Detector should only be used where radar detectors are legal. Stinger DSI Computer + Radar Detector is the ONLY 100% PASSIVE, stealth radar detector, all other "stealth" designs still use an active superheterodyne antenna including the Beltronics STI Driver and Beltronics STI-R. Using a 100% passive spectrum analyser antenna results in true 100% passive stealth without any reduction in sensitivity. In fact, the Stringer DSI Computer design is based on military spectrum analysing technology that is capable of scanning all band concurrently and is many times more sensitive than any superheterodyne based technology. Stinger DSI Computer -  The standard Stinger DSI Computer system incorporates GPS black spot location alerts and provides the ultimate trip logging facilities. An ideal tool of the trade for self employed or executives with fleet vehicles. Simply and easily log kilometres travelled as either "personal travel" or "business related travel" greatly simplifies tax and expenses for work related travel. The standard Stinger DSI Computer can be upgraded with (and downgraded from) Radar Detection capabilities at no extra cost. Stinger DSI Computer + Radar Detection -  Stinger DSI Computer + Radar Detection offers unparalleled protection from police laser. The first and only 100% stealth and 100% passive radar detection device. This system is based on a powerful military technology spectrum analyser antenna. The Stinger DSI Computer + Radar Detection scans all band concurrently and is not based on an active superheterodyne receiver like all other radar detectors. DSI Computer + Radar Detection owners demand the very best performance possible. A unique and innovative feature is that the Radar Detection feature can be easily and immediately removed from the DSI Computer in case the driver travels to a jurisdiction where Radar Detection is illegal. Then when the driver returns to home or the office, the Radar Detection feature can be reinstalled via a free PC connection and Stinger DSI PC software. Radar Detection capabilities can be installed and removed when required.
Stinger DSI Computer Multanova detection performanceStinger DSI Computer + Radar Detection has the absolute undisputed longed K and KA band radar detection available. Below are 3 videos, the detection range was limited only by the available length of road and terrain. Hutton Street pictured below has a hill at each end and a low point in the middle. If the road was longer and not so hilly, the detection range would likely have been longer still. Video #3 was actually taken first and determined to be below the maximum detection range. Video 1 and 2 were taken at the furthest reasonable point, past this point was on the decline of a second hill and a detection over 2 hills at over 1km would not be reasonably expected. 
Stinger DSI Computer With our pioneering background as a European market leader and innovator in the field of high-end radar detectors, we have spent more than 12 years gathering customer input. After marrying up these customer ideas with our own wish list, we set to work on developing the new Stinger three years ago. The initial R&D phase revealed that we could produce something much more beautiful and unique than we initially had in mind. And if it can be done bigger and better, we won't hesitate to make it bigger and better. The downside of StingerÍs endless perfectionism is that development was significantly delayed. On the upside, we have produced a dream product. No other consumer product can match its brilliance.
DSI ComputerThe 'DSI Computer' is a modular computer system for motorists, consisting of a Computer Center and multiple connecting modules. The entire machine is operated via the 'Memory Display' module, a 'Graphic User Interface'. The DSI is highly future proof, not least because of its modular design: to activate a new development, all the user needs to do is to click on a new module in the Computer Center. Furthermore, the PC Interface software can be used to download updates from this website. All these features combined means the DSI is a valuable investment for years to come. World exclusive: Military precision in your carThe Spectrum Analyzer is by far the most eye-catching module. This unique Stinger invention is based on the 'laboratory spectrum analyzer', a relatively large and expensive device used by institutes that deal with professional and applied scientific research for precision measurements and analyses in the field of microwave signals. Due to its compact size, the Stinger Spectrum Analyzer can be quickly and easily built into your car, and is reasonably inexpensive. But that's not all. Our engineers have been able to combine this Spectrum Analyzer with a 'patch antenna', based on military technology, applied in F-16 fighter jets and intelligent Rocket Launcher Systems. The 'patch antennaÍ guarantees not only razor-sharp precision but is also an essential aid for the extreme sensitivity of the DSI. DSI Computer applications Backed up by cutting-edge technology and an intelligent computer, the DSI Computer can be deployed for a multitude of hyper intelligent applications, such as: Safety Signals - "Warning! Roadwork." Police Check - The roles reversed Military Detection - Military measurement technology, double the distance Route Logging - Automatic mileage reporting The 'Safety Signals' function can be used to warn motorists of e.g. roadworks, crossings used by children going to or coming from school, and police and ambulance services. Reverse the roles for a change: DSI's 'Police Check' enables motorists to check police accuracy and the legality of speed controls. 'Military Detection' combines the 'Radar Alert' and 'GPS Detection' functions. Using military measurement techniques - the new Stinger is not a radar detector - the DSI can issue a warning at twice the distance of radar detectors such as the legendary Stinger Ventura. 'Route Logging' is a GPS-driven automatic mileage reporting system for the tax man and/or fleet management.
Overview of Stinger DSI ComputerThe Stinger 'Driver Safety & Information Computer' consists of a 'Computer Center' and various modules - such as e.g. the GPS antenna, Memory Display and Spectrum Analyzer - which can be operated by clicking on the Computer Center screen. 
Stinger DSI Computer Applications 1. Safety Signals: "Warning! Roadworks."
The Spectrum Analyzer enables real-time, remote reception and decoding of so-called Safety Signals. The 'Safety Signals' function warns the driver of potentially dangerous traffic situations. Road workers, schools, police and ambulance services emit Safety Signals, which are immediately transferred into a warning signal for cars equipped with DSI. 2. Police Check: The roles reversed. There has been a recent upsurge in news items reporting on the inaccuracy of police speed checks. Police radars often fail to operate within the statutory frequency bands or are set at an incorrect angle. In addition, car registration plates are not always read properly due to illegibility or sloppy note-taking. Stinger took up this challenge years ago and can finally offer European motorists the ideal tool to defend themselves against unjust fines. DSI's Police Check enables the motorist to check the validity and accuracy of police speed checks, arming the user with sufficient proof to avoid being fined. The Police Check function is available in the most extensive DSI version, the 'Elite Edition'. The Police Check function uses e.g. GPS and the Spectrum Analyzer to keep an exact track of your route, all radar control points passed and, in the case of radar, the exact measurement frequency and speed. Under the famous Mulder Act, the burden of proof in the event of a traffic fine is shifted to the car owner. Under this Act, the onus is on the owner to prove that he has not committed a traffic violation. The Police Check function can help you with this burden of proof. 3. Military Detection: Military technology, double the distance. 'Military Detection' comprises of the 'Radar Alert' and GPS Detection functions. As previously mentioned, the new Stinger is not a radar detector. Thanks in part to the Spectrum Analyzer and 'patch antenna' technology, the system is able to spot police radars with scientific accuracy at distances previously thought impossible. The DSI Computer can issue a warning at over twice the distance of radar detectors such as the legendary Stinger Ventura. Our GPS Detection technology supports the radar alert function and enables advanced technology, such as: SpotListing, activating alarms in fixed places
Simply press the 'SpotList' button to mark all locations where you would like to be warned, such as new radar poles and dangerous crossings. Simple and highly effective. The SpotListing function provides motorists with a warning signal for non-radar and laser speed traps (poles with induction loops, route controls), i.e. speed traps that cannot be identified by the Spectrum Analyzer. SpotListing is additionally available to customers purchasing DSI without the Radar Alert function. It approximates Radar Alert on the basis of a national database (available in the U.K. this year). SpotListing is a free application, saving DSI users from taking out expensive and complicated subscriptions. FalseListing, making nuisance alarms a thing of the past
Imagine this: You drive past the same petrol station every day. The automatic doors of that petrol station cause the radar detector to produce a false alarm. Every morning. Is that radar detector slow witted? Yes. The Stinger DSI is far more intelligent. All the DSI motorist needs to do is press the 'FalseList' button when passing the petrol station. From then on, you will no longer be bothered by false alarms when driving past that location. SpeedSense: No alarms below a certain speed
Do you often hear radar alerts even though you aren't speeding? The Stinger DSI allows you to enter two speed values below which no alarm will sound, one for motorways and one for non-motorway driving. The DSI GPS module determines which of the two values to apply. The luxury of relaxed driving. CurrentSpeed: GPS speed at alarm.
Available by popular demand. Many motorists automatically look at their display when a warning is sound. During each warning, the CurrentSpeed function displays the real-time speed on your DSI. The latest GPS technology ensures this value is even more accurate than the value indicated by your car. 4. Route Logging: Automatic mileage administration. The 'Elite Edition' of the DSI will also boast the 'Route Logging' function, a GPS-driven automatic mileage reporting system for the tax man and/or fleet management. 5. Spectrum Analysis: Accurate on-site measurements The DSI enables professional users such as microwave engineers and/or mechanics to work with a spectrum analyser at any location. The DSI Spectrum Analyzer is many times cheaper than the 50,000 Euro that a classic laboratory spectrum analyzer will set you back. In addition, thanks to its highly compact size, the DSI Spectrum Analyzer can be used anywhere: At measurement locations all over the country, as well as in your own laboratory.

Spectrum Analyzer (SA-01) Stinger's biggest achievement so far is undoubtedly the invention of the Spectrum Analyzer.
Surpassing our customersÍ wildest dreams, our engineers have spent years closely examining the operation of professional laboratory analyzers. Further inspiration was sought from the defence industry. The highly advanced Active Phased Array Radar (APAR) is used for critical radar applications. The two biggest problems facing our engineers were miniaturising the system and making desired technologies affordable. Although Stinger prioritises quality and performance over cost price, a price tag of hundreds of thousands of Euros would have caused a minor rebellion. The end result cost a lot of blood, sweat and tears. It is a unique system in every sense. - Able to analyse a whole spectrum at once.

GPS Module (including GPS antenna) (GM-01) The American government has filled the skies with satellites. The so-called Global Positioning System (GPS) enables us to measure our location anywhere on earth up to tens of metres accuracy. We have embraced this technology to give added functionality to the DSI Computer, including: Journey Registration, FalseListing and SpotListing. To use these functions, all you need to do is plug in the DSI GPS module.

Stinger DSI Computer in the pressPhenomenal New Stinger "At last!", we exclaimed in 2002, when Stinger finally invited us to view its latest product: the DSI. Prior to that, we had already been waiting two years to meet the successor to the unsurpassed Ventura. Another two years down the road, and Stinger has finally completed its 'Driver Safety & Information' computer. Significant delays had been caused by supplier problems, development setbacks and start-up difficulties. We have finally been allowed to test the DSI - as the device is officially known - once and for all dispelling the rumours among Autovisie readers that the device was but a figment of our imagination. As reported back in 2002 (in AV7, for all you AV anoraks) DSI's detection technology goes by the name of Spectrum Analysis and is based on the latest defence technology. This reportedly enables DSI to detect radar earlier and, above all, more accurately. Following our test drive in Germany, we wholeheartedly support this claim: it is a phenomenal piece of equipment. It sounds a warning at twice the distance of the old Ventura, and many times faster than the average dash detector. This was the case on both the K ( Gatso ) and Ka bands. What's more, the DSI Spectrum Analyser produces far fewer false alarms than radar detectors. Furthermore, the more expensive versions of the DSI are equipped with a GPS module, enabling speed-dependent warnings, as well as the systematic suppressing of false alarms at, for instance, the petrol stations you pass daily. Both options are obviously extremely useful. There is however a big but. The Netherlands introduced a ban on radar detectors on 1 January 2004. Although Stinger is adamant that the DSI is not a radar detector, the company fears the police may think otherwise. As a result, the Dutch market will be graced with the non-radar-detection version, leaving Dutch motorists with functions such as Route Logging, Laser Detection, GPS, Safety Signals and Police Check. More about this later. As radar detectors are not banned in their respective countries, German, British and Spanish customers are free to buy the full DSI version, i.e. including the radar detection option. Frequent travellers to these countries can upload the detection software via the Internet, using a PC connection and a DSI docking station. This method also allows them to download GPS locations of radar poles, as well as the latest software updates. All free of charge. Back in the Netherlands, the detection function can be deleted with one touch of the button. Users will then have to upload the detection software again to activate the radar detector function. Is it worth purchasing the DSI without the detection module? Hardly. No matter how useful the other functions may be. Take for instance Police Check. It operates like an airplane's Black Box, registering every single speed check alert. If you are fined, you can check the data of your black box to determine whether the reading was carried out in accordance with the letter of the law. If not, you can appeal with your hard evidence. The Route Logging function is another handy accessory, in particular for users needing to convince the tax authorities that they are not using the company car for their own private enjoyment. And in six months' time, Dutch motorists will be warned of roadworks using radar beacons transmitted to the DSI Safety Signals. Nevertheless, all the above are side issues, costing 895 Euro for the basic version (without GSP) and a princely sum of 1695 Euro for the Elite Edition (with all the bells and whistles). If you are prepared to run the risk of getting a hefty fine and having your expensive though highly useful DSI confiscated, you can always travel to Emmerich, Germany, to purchase the all-inclusive version, or upgrade your Dutch version via the Internet. In its complete version, the DSI is definitely worth the money. A useful addition is that the DSI detector also operates without a display, and emits sound signals. The Stinger DSI will be on sale from June. There is already a long list of advance subscribers, so expect delays in delivery. translated from the Dutch magazine AutoVisie (May 19, 2004) New weapon against speed traps! by Charles Sanders AMSTERDAM - Boasting technology from F-16 fighter jets and Patriot missiles, a Dutch company is conquering the English, German, South Korean and US markets with speed check warning systems. In partnership with the British motorway police, we were able to test this Driver Safety and Information (DSI) computer on the roads in southern England and at a former RAF base. Tests revealed the system managed to accurately detect speed radar systems up to a distance of 1,200 metres. Using a so-called Spectrum Analyzer, the system receives and analyses radio and radar signals. The 'patch antennas', part of the DSI computer, can also be found on the nose of fighter jets and the interior of surface-to-air missiles. Taking only a fraction of a second, they calculate the frequency and angle of radio signals 'fired' at the motorist. Even laser beams are detected in plenty of time and, where permitted, neutralised. Commodore pilot Steve Netto, an R.A.F. F16 veteran, had the following to say: "This is the first time this high-tech invention has been used on the open roads. I am convinced that the computer will also promote road safety in countries where the use of radar detection systems is currently banned. This is the sting in the Dutch tail. As a result of the anti-radar detector stance of the national traffic officer, Koos Spee, DSI will only be available in its amputated form in the Netherlands. The computer, on sale from next week, is delivered without the warning function for flash boxes and mobile radar. Nevertheless, managing director T. de Wilde of Stinger believes enough of the product has remained intact to make it a success in our country: "DSI enables Route Logging and warns drivers of potentially dangerous traffic situations. A network is currently being established in The Netherlands, allowing schools and road workers to transmit signals to motorists at vital times. DSI additionally verifies police speed checks, something very much in the news in view of the many test cases currently underway. Motorists are often unfairly fined as a result of incorrectly positioned systems or radars searching at incorrect frequencies. Our highly accurate patch antennas record actual speed." Home market This does not alter the fact that Stinger hopes to sell the full DSI product on the home market. We have used the upgrade in England, and found the system ideal for radar alerts. As soon as all the legal obstacles have been lifted, the extra software will be delivered free of charge in the Netherlands. Professor meester Geert-Jan Knoops, StingerÍs in-house lawyer, believes the legal battle is far from over: "The current detector ban is out of step with EU legislation, such as the right to free movement of communication and information, enshrined in numerous conventions. It will be up to the European Court of Justice to give judgment." Source: De Telegraaf, 15-04-2004 Stinger DSI Computer KA Multanova detection
