Revolutionary Accuracy
Reduces the uncertainty and frustration of false alerts with Digital
Signal Processing (DSP) technology, the next level of accurate radar
detection. DSP digitizes radar signals and compares them to known
radar gun signatures to determine whether or not to sound an alert.
The Power of Community
Let the free Cobra iRadar® app and community-based detection
lead the way. iRadar gives real-time alerts to upcoming Speed &
Red Light Cameras, Live Police Activity, Radar & Laser Guns and
Caution Areas reported by other iRadar users*.

iRadar Community
When you, or any other iRadar user, detects a radar or laser signal
the alert information is anonymously sent to Cobra’s cloud servers.
Within seconds, that information is processed and displayed on your
map as part of a Threat Area.
As you approach a specific Threat Area you
will hear a short beep and then the app will
indicate the Cobra’s assessment of the
reliability of the threat.
High-Threat Area means multiple reports
have confirmed a legitimate threat in the
area recently.
Medium or Low-Threat Area means signals
have been detected but have either not been
confirmed or have not been reported lately.
Paying attention to threat areas will allow
you to be warned of potential threats
before you enter radar detection range.
Community Radar/Laser alert sharing
means that you have an entire network
of users working to keep you and your
wallet safe.
Threat Area Alert
