DroneSentry-C2 Command-and-Control (C2) provides an intuitive and feature-rich software platform, providing counter-UAS awareness and reporting capability. It integrates both DroneShield and third-party C-UxS sensors and effectors. Those include multiple AI-enabled sensing and tracking products, such as:

• RfOne: long-range direction-finding sensors for UAS detection and tracking

• DroneOptID: camera-agnostic optical/thermal camera AI software

• SensorFusionAI: sensor-agnostic, 3D data fusion engine

The GUI harnesses the advantages of each detection technology, providing the user with an early warning system and growing detection threat level as more data is gathered and processed.

DroneSentry-C2 allows remote access to DroneShield products to check statuses, configure system settings, monitor threat levels, and respond in real-time. DroneSentry-C2 is available in both cloud-hosted and on-premises deployment options. Customers requiring maximum flexibility will benefit from secure cloud hosting, allowing multiple operators to manage sites remotely. Customers requiring an air-gapped solution benefit from the supplied on-premises 2RU server unit.

DroneSentry-C2 enables real-time airspace awareness with a low cognitive burden for the system operator. It also acts as a Digital Twin, enabling virtual representation of the system’s physical sensor and effector assets, digitally overlaid to the required facilities, and providing a simulation and training environment. It provides elements and dynamics of the system through its lifecycle to the end user.

DroneSentry-C2 has an optional Nearmap mapping upgrade for best-in-class mapping data. The upgrade supplements the existing mapping service provided with each DroneSentry-C2 license. Nearmap provides users with high-resolution aerial imagery in Australia, New Zealand, and North America. Its resolution is several times higher than standard satellite imagery, providing increased precision when responding to C-UAS threats. Nearmap mapping data is regularly updated, ensuring sites reflect the latest geospatial data for operators.

Advantages of DroneSentry-C2

Scalable & Flexible– The platform is built to scale horizontally and vertically; on-premise (air-gapped) or on-cloud options are available. It can be used for single multi-sensor sites or several multi-sensor nodes.

Immediate Evidence Collection– Displays live UAS (e.g., drone) activity, alerts the user about the environment, and inbuilt tools for detailed, precise report generation.

Convenient– Can be accessed and configured remotely from a web browser, wherever there is Internet connectivity, or as a standalone desktop application. Air-gapped solutions are also available. Alerts are configured through the GUI to send via SMS or Email to remote operators.

Compatible– RESTful API allows easy integration into existing security systems.
