New mobile solution to detect and mitigate rogue drones

Counter-drone specialist Dedrone has launched DedroneOnTheMove, a sophisticated mobile solution to detect, identify, and mitigate unauthorized drones in real-time.

The solution provides a robust response to the growing concerns over drone misuse, ranging from privacy invasion to more serious security threats such as smuggling and terrorism. With DedroneOnTheMove, security can protect sensitive sites and events from potential drone incursions.

One of the standout features of DedroneOnTheMove is its portability and ease of deployment. The system is designed to be mounted on vehicles, allowing it to move with the flow of activity and provide continuous protection over large areas. This flexibility makes it an ideal solution for protecting high-profile events, critical infrastructure, and even border security operations.

Traditional stationary counter-drone systems, while effective, cannot provide the flexibility needed to cover large or moving areas effectively. DedroneOnTheMove’s ability to be deployed rapidly and relocated as required makes it crucial for scenarios where the threat landscape can change quickly, such as public gatherings or emergency response situations.

For instance, at large-scale events like sports games or concerts, the system can be used to ensure the airspace remains free of unauthorized drones, thus protecting attendees and performers. Critical infrastructure sites, such as power plants or government buildings, can also benefit from the system’s continuous surveillance and rapid response capabilities.

Moreover, DedroneOnTheMove can play a vital role in border security. With its ability to move along borders and monitor vast stretches of land, it can help detect and intercept drones used for smuggling or other illicit activities.

The solution integrates seamlessly with Dedrone’s DroneTracker software, which uses advanced AI and machine learning algorithms to classify drone types and assess threats. The system can differentiate between harmless hobby drones and those that pose a potential risk, enabling security personnel to respond appropriately.

It’s worth mentioning that Axon, the company behind the infamous Taser drone project, has announced plans to acquire DeDrone.
