In a significant stride for India’s defense technology landscape, Guwahati-based AvGarde Systems Private Limited has clinched the first prize in the Technology Development Fund (TDF) scheme, an initiative by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). The accolade was awarded for their groundbreaking development, the Avgarde DroneSafe system, which represents a pivotal advancement in counter-drone technology.
Avgarde’s DroneSafe system is engineered with a high-performance X-Band micro-doppler detection radar, which is central to its capability to detect aerial threats with high precision. This system is not just about detection; it’s a comprehensive solution that integrates tactical jamming and a GNSS spoofing module to enact real-time soft-kill countermeasures. These features ensure that DroneSafe can effectively neutralize potential threats without causing physical harm or collateral damage, aligning with modern warfare’s ethical considerations.
Features and Capabilities
- AI-Enabled Detection and Classification: DroneSafe employs advanced artificial intelligence to not only detect but also classify various types of drones, UAVs, and other airborne objects. This allows for a nuanced response tailored to the specific nature of the threat.
- Electronic Warfare: The system’s tactical jamming capabilities disrupt the communication between the drone and its operator, while the GNSS spoofing module misleads the drone’s navigation system, leading it astray from its intended path or mission.
- ISR Applications: Beyond immediate countermeasures, DroneSafe supports intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) by providing real-time data and situational awareness, crucial for strategic decision-making in both military and civilian contexts.
- Full Integration for Airspace Management: As a state-of-the-art Counter Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS), DroneSafe offers a fully integrated solution that not only reacts to threats but also reports on the nature and extent of the risks, facilitating better airspace management.
