Dedrone has released a new sensor, the RF-300, which automatically locates drones and their pilots. When combined with the broad coverage and early warning capabilities of Dedrone’s RF-100, the new RF-300 adds situational awareness for organizations to determine the nature and severity of threats from unauthorized drones.
The ultimate protection a facility can take against drone threats is to stop the pilot before they can cause any harm, and hold them accountable for damages. The Dedrone RF-300 provides this opportunity to enable law enforcement and site security leaders to locate and take action against trespassing pilots.
Key Highlights of Dedrone’s RF-300
- Automatically tracks a drone’s flightpath, providing advance opportunity to protect sensitive infrastructure and deploy security measures
- Pinpoints the location of a drone pilot, enabling security personnel to either alert law enforcement of an illegal intrusion or confront the pilot at their launch site
- Connects to DroneTracker, Dedrone’s software platform, which combines multiple sensors and countermeasures, including RF, cameras, and microphones, for complete airspace security
What makes Dedrone’s RF-300 different from RF-100
Dedrone’s RF-300 builds on the capabilities of the widely-deployed RF-100 sensor. Together, both sensors provide robust airspace security. The Dedrone RF-100 is designed to diagnose the number of drones in protected airspace, while the RF-300 collects forensic evidence to take recourse against malicious pilots and prevent them from disrupting a protected site.
The Dedrone RF-300 is already in action. The technology was recently deployed the technology at a global economic meeting in Davos, Switzerland, which was attended by over 3,000 people, with events headlined by world’s most compelling politicians, scientists, and leaders. The police of the Canton of Graubündenm were responsible for the security of their attendees, and with Dedrone, were able to monitor their airspace in real time and, if necessary, intervene and stop a drone threat at an early stage.
DroneTracker integrates into multiple sensors, including RF-300, and provides protected sites with complete airspace security
DroneTracker integrates in the best of detection technology to provide complete airspace security
DroneTracker aggregates sensor information about potential threats, recognizing and classifying drones of all kinds. Its web-based interface shows live threats, real-time drone flight paths, and records forensic details including video evidence.
Dedrone launched DroneTracker 3 in December 2017, bringing to market the industry’s first airspace security solution that includes automated summary reporting for instant diagnosis of drone airspace activity. DroneTracker 3.1 was released in February 2018, which was updated to integrate in to Dedrone’s RF-300.
When combined, DroneTracker, Dedrone’s RF-100, and the new RF-300 make the Dedrone solution a complete, reliable, and accurate platform for drone detection and classification.
