Either the operator had previously detected the signal and used the rock as reference for the video or all of this was a set up to convince the audience.
Assuming the video is showing an authentic detection, it's a nice demonstration. In this case, it's clear that the device when over calibrated, emit random beeps to other directions. And when gain is reduced, it gets quiet also to the target. So, a midway calibration in between the two extremes appears to work at some point, tough the random beeping only diminish but do not cease.
It's also noticeable that the saline and humid environment is jamming the IR sensor. I would suggest the designer of this device to build a more stable comparator circuit for the Murata sensor.
Nice video but it's hard to tell if it's an authentic detection or not. The target could have been planted and the random beeps only to justify the target. Particularly when the sensor is put real close to the humid and saline ground that we all know, enhances ionization.
Also, who posted and made the video is a 'middle east representative' for Crypton. So, as a sales representative, he needs to sell it.
Sorry to be playing the favorite game of the 'skepthics' here but this does not mean that in this case it should not be valid.
I like the video anyway. Apart from being authentic or not, it's good to see that new devices being made for treasure hunting are of long range type. In my opinion, those are the real tools for the treasure hunter. Not the outdated floor polishers that some manufacturers still insist to sell, if you know what I mean.

I am presently completing the final stages of the MX-8, my new LRL. I believe that in some months, when I get enough time out of my busy schedule, I will be able to pack it and field tests will begin. I will probably show it here and you will know what it can do.
good luck with your MX-8


I also have other LRL project,but still in prototype, its type of IONIC .



regards
