About
OTTO Engineering has two divisions: OTTO Controls (switches, operator control grips, joysticks with Hall effect technology for military/commercial platforms) and OTTO Communications (tactical headsets, remote speaker microphones, bone conduction systems, surveillance kits for military/LE/public safety two-way radio use).
Relevancy
Two named divisions serving largely overlapping military/LE/public-safety/commercial customer sets — unlike Patriot3's genuinely distinct-buyer-type divisions, treated as a single row with Controls (the longer-standing, founding business) as primary and the Communications/tactical-headset line (same category as INVISIO/KÄGWERKS, C02-02) noted as secondary.
