DroneShield has released the latest update to its full range of radio frequency sensors including the RfPatrol, DroneSentry-X and RfOne models.
This update adds new drone models and communication protocols which can be identified by RFAI, including new types of homemade or non-commercial UxS. RF devices operate with greater stability and accuracy resulting in faster, more reliable drone detection.
“DroneShield always aims to provide our customers with industry-leading technology so they can maintain the highest degree of safety and security in the face of an evolving drone threat,” said CTO Angus Bean.
The new features include:
-
Faster scanning with AI: Detection scans are now 17% faster, so users are notified of drones sooner and updated in near-real-time. Settings can be configured to further optimise scan time based on mission requirements.
-
New drone types: The RFAI drone library has been expanded to recognise more signals used in custom and aftermarket drones.
-
Growing API: Each device’s inbuilt gRPC API extends to cover greater control of positioning systems. Disruption protocols are faster and more regular, providing dependability when it matters most.
-
Cybersecurity resilience: Onboard firmware has seen a slew of security improvements in line with expectations from leading defence clients
-
AI and software improvements: Increased accuracy in direction-finding calculations, as well as future-proofing features for upcoming performance improvements in 2025.
