What they do

Problem

Traditional radar systems are too centralized, detectable, and costly to provide wide-area, persistent tracking of stealthy drones and missile threats.

Solution

A scalable passive mesh network of aerial sensors that fuses signals to precisely detect and track drones and other airborne threats better than radar.

Who it's for

Military and national security organizations responsible for airspace surveillance and air defense.
