The United States will soon be able to identify enemy drones in farther distances; This is with a new system that cannot be traced to itself.
Equipped with artificial intelligence technology, the system was recently displayed at the “Technology Preparation Assessment Experiments” event. Companies L3harris Technologies And Shield ai Introduced the technology; A system that can track hostile drones faster than existing samples.
According to the organizers, the technology is even able to identify drones in a situation where some of them are hidden behind buildings or among the clouds.
Unmanned threats and the need for faster reaction
In the experiment performed, L3harris explores the passive capabilities of this system using electro -optical and infrared sensors Wescam MX-Series And anti -phenomenon software Tracker Belonged to the Shield AI examined. The compound was able to identify several different types of drones.
“Our warriors and their allies are facing a new generation of unmanned threats that require a faster reaction and higher range, without tracking themselves,” said Tom Kirkland, deputy director and director of targeting and sensor systems at L3harris. “Cooperation with Shield AI makes proven targeting systems such as the Wescam MX-Series have become more efficient and provide more protection for the forces.”
Optimization of bird behavioral models
The next phase of the cooperation of the two companies will include improving the behavioral models of bird objects to enhance tracking in the air, ground and maritime areas in day and night operations.
This capability based on artificial intelligence also with the system Vampire Counter-UNMANNED System L3harris is merge; A system designed to defend against small drones.
Christian Gotires, deputy deputy Hivemind Solutions “Competitors are using more drones more than ever, cheaper and more complex in environments,” said Shield AI. Failing this threat requires a technology that is intelligent, consistent and inactive. “This partnership with L3harris combines the power of autonomy and sensor to meet this urgent operational need.”
Targeting systems to serve information operations
In this innovation, the Wescam MX-Series multipurpose systems are used; Electro -optical and infrared systems used for information, identification, care and targeting missions in air, ground and sea platforms.
According to L3harris, the Wescam MX-Series turrets have surpassed competitors in all performance indicators, offering the highest range of EO/IR targeting and targeting in each class. These systems, with an unprecedented accuracy, allow the troops to be able to superior to the battlefield.
According to the manufacturer, these targeting systems tested in the field many times, in addition to easy installing “connect and use”, have highly sensitive multiple sensors for day operations, low and night conditions. Also, with the use of diode pumping lasers, they have a low failure rate and high durability. Graceful geographical location technology also provides simple and without hand interference, even in conditions of moving or obstacles.
According to L3harris, “This capability is now available.”
