Sentrycs has today launched its HORIZON self-learning counter-drone system, representing “a significant advancement in the evolution of counter-drone technology,” said the company. “This groundbreaking AI-powered solution enables real-time detection of all types of DIY drones, including those that were previously undetectable,” said Sentrycs in a press release. “Sentrycs’ HORIZON analyzes the RF environment, identifying signal bursts that match the characteristics of datalinks emitted by drones, remote controls, or other communication devices. It supports all transmission types, including analog, digital, and video. Leveraging advanced machine learning algorithms, the HORIZON extracts meaningful insights from unknown communication patterns, transforming it into the first-ever protocol manipulation-based C-UAS solution that is non-library-based.
“By detecting transmissions that might otherwise go unnoticed, the HORIZON provides an early warning mechanism and actionable intelligence. This signal intelligence often serves as the first indication of a nearby threat, enabling further counter-drone actions such as electro-optic confirmation, jamming, or other mitigation techniques.
“While its primary capability is detection, the HORIZON lays the foundation for a system that will ultimately address the entire DTIM (Detection, Tracking, Identification, Mitigation) cycle, even for devices not included in the system’s library. Sentrycs’ technology will support all communication protocols and autonomously add new ones. As it evolves, it will implement preventive measures, empowering users to make informed decisions and respond proactively to emerging threats.”
