Skysentry — Surveillance.
The Skysentry is a surveillance system with hemispherical acoustic detection, manufactured by Microflown AVISA in the Netherlands. It supports the detection, localisation, and tracking of airborne platforms, even in challenging urban environments. Utilising CASTLE sensor posts, the system forms a spatial ‘bubble’ to identify UAVs, ensuring comprehensive coverage where traditional systems fail.
Operational Overview:
The Skysentry operates by deploying CASTLE sensor posts that capture acoustic data from all directions. This data is processed to detect and track UAVs, even in environments with obstructed visibility. The system’s ability to handle various ambient noises enhances detection accuracy, making it suitable for urban operations. Deployment is rapid, with a single person able to set up a sensor post in under ten minutes.
Applications:
- Urban UAV detection for military operations
- Surveillance in acoustically cluttered environments
- Integration with command and control systems
- Non-line-of-sight detection in complex terrains
Key Features:
- All Weather Capability: Operates in fog, rain, and smoke without performance loss.
- Non Line-of-Sight Detection: Effective in urban areas with obstructed visibility.
- Broadband Acoustic Sensing: Detects sound from all directions within a full hemispheric range.
- Frequency Spectrum Analysis: Reduces false alerts with precise frequency bin detection.
- Passive and Unattended Operation: Functions independently or networked without direct monitoring.
