The unique 3D locating technology, designed and manufactured by OKM, is used to detect underground objects and structures such as buried artefacts, ancient treasures, hidden pipelines and conduits, mineral deposits (gold, silver, iron ore, etc.), as well as underground tunnels, bunkers and shelters in real time.

Over the past years, several amazing discoveries have been made with OKM's metal detectors. Some of them are displayed in international museums and exhibitions such as the Smithsonian Institution in the US and the Imperial War Museum in London.

The company's latest developments include metal detectors that use innovative communication standards. To simplify its usage and make them more portable, the newest OKM devices are now controlled via smartphone and tablet PC.
