Sentrycs, an Israeli counter-drone technology company, has unveiled Horizon, an AI-powered engine that enables real-time detection of all types of DIY drones, including those that were previously undetectable.
By detecting transmissions that might evade traditional sensors, the Horizon engine provides an early warning mechanism and actionable intelligence
The proliferation of independently built (DIY) drones presents an increasing challenge to global security. These drones, which are inexpensive and easy to assemble, challenge traditional detection systems by employing techniques such as frequency hopping and operating across a broad frequency range, making it difficult to detect and track them using conventional counter-drone methods.
Horizon analyzes the radio frequency environment, identifying signal bursts that match the characteristics of data links emitted by drones, remote controllers, or other communication devices. It supports all types of transmissions, including analog, digital, and video. Using advanced machine learning algorithms, Horizon extracts meaningful insights from unknown communication patterns, making it a C-UAS solution based on protocol manipulation rather than static data libraries.
