Liteye Systems, Inc, identified by US DoD NORTHCOM as a Subject Matter Expert in Countering UAS (Unmanned Aerial Systems) threats, was recently invited to attend a collaboration session between Government and Industry to better define emerging threats across North America.
NORTHCOM is a Unified Combatant Command of the U.S Military tasked with providing military support for non-military authorities in the U.S and protecting the territory and national interests of the United States on land, sea and air.
“It is clear that the government is continuing to define policy and requirements to counter the unmanned threat, we appreciate their invitation and acknowledgment as Subject Matter Experts for having previously developed and fielded solutions to combat, that remain in use today” reports Liteye CEO Kenneth Geyer.
Liteye has won numerous awards and recognition for their field proven variants of the Anti-UAS Defense System (AUDS, M-AUDS and C-AUDS) as well as their competitive selection for numerous contracts by the US Air Force and US Army. Liteye’s system was first deployed in 2016 with the US Army and has fast become the go to defense system for US Forces. Liteye’s combat proven air defense systems have the capabilities to detect, track, identify and defend enemy and nefarious UAS with layered technologies to create a solid line of defense. Mr. Geyer went on to say: “In the field, we have received feedback that has been very positive and helped us adapt to the evolving UAS threat. The systems are credited for saving many lives against the growing use of unmanned and robotic systems”.
Liteye and their teammates Chess Dynamics, Enterprise Control Systems, Blighter, Numerica, Open Works Engineering, and Pratt & Miller, continue to advance and bring new capabilities and layers of technology to the fight as UAS threats develop. Liteye not only provides solutions to the military but also provides the private sector with solutions at airports and other critical national infrastructure locations in numerous countries.
