Software

Design

• Centralized C2 platform with a modular and scalable architecture for enhanced operational control. 

• Platform is built to scale horizontally and vertically, on-premise (air-gapped) or on cloud options are available.

Integration

• DroneSentry-C2 integrates both DroneShield and third-party CUxS sensors and effectors. Those include multiple AI-enabled sensing and tracking products such as:

  • DroneSentry-X Mk2 (link): RF sensors for UAS detection and optional defeat.

  • DroneOptID (link): camera-agnostic optical/thermal camera AI software

  • SensorFusionAI (link): sensor-agnostic, 3D data fusion engine. 

• The GUI harnesses the advantages of each detection technology, providing the user with an early warning system and growing detection threat level as more data is gathered and processed. 

• RESTful API allows easy integration into existing security systems.

Ease of Use

• DroneSentry-C2 allows for remote access to DroneShield products to check statuses, configure system systems, monitor threat levels and respond in real-time.

• Detection statistics and logs are presented in clear summaries and can be exported for external use, providing vendor, location, duration, and MAC address details for comprehensive airspace activity insights.

System Components

• Digital Twin (link)

  • Embedded Digital Twin planning tool allows for rapid planning of new site deployments to assess performance capabilities and ensure operational success in a visual real-world mirrored simulation. Existing sites can be saved and replicated into the platform to capture system deployment scenarios over its lifecycle.

• DroneOptID (link) [This might need it’s own mini section within this product section-this is not a standalone product, it is only available with DroneSentry-C2]

• SensorFusionAI (link)

Intuitive Controls

• AI-powered automation and user-friendly interface streamline drone detection and classification. 

• Live monitoring dashboard provides real-time drone activity monitoring, delivering vast amounts of environmental data in an intuitive format to support swift, informed decision making. 

• Can be accessed and configured remotely from a web browser, wherever there is internet connectivity or as a standalone desktop application. Alerts are configured through the GUI to send via SMS or email for remote operators.

Optional Upgrades

• DroneSentry-C2 has an optional Nearmap mapping upgrade for best-in-class mapping data. The upgrade supplements the existing mapping service provided with each DroneSentry-C2 license. Nearmap provides users with high resolution aerial imagery in Australia, New Zealand, and North America. Nearmap’s resolution is several times higher than standard satellite imagery, providing increased precision when responding to CUAS threats. Nearmap mapping data is regularly updated ensuring sites reflect the latest geospatial data for operators.

Versatility

• Secure cloud-based processing allows operators to access their sites from anywhere, anytime.

• Onsite or ‘air-gapped’ hardware solutions are also available from the supplied on-premises 2RU server unit.

• Control and manage threats by engaging defeat capabilities.
