Detect

A detection is a declaration that a UAS is in the presence of a sensor. Some systems, depending on how thresholds are configured, may report any object in its view as a detection (i.e., birds, commercial planes, etc.), or they may attempt to only alert the operator of objects deemed to be considered UAS, based on system capabilities and configuration.

Sensors can include EO/IR cameras, acoustic sensors, radars, and radio frequency (RF) detection sensors.
