ADVANCED PERIMETER DEFENSE
with Acoustic CUAS

A car is patrolling along a fenced border.

During the last couple of years, we have seen an increase in hybrid warfare, where borders appear ever more porous with the introduction of UAV´s (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) and UGV´s (Unmanned Ground Vehicles). Through acoustic CUAS (Counter-Unmanned Aerial System), Squarehead builds a better defense against such perimeter intrusions.

THE NEED FOR PROACTIVE DEFENSE STRATEGIES

In an era where technology escalates threats beyond physical boundaries, facilities like military bases, prisons, industrial sites, power plants, harbor areas and national borders require advanced protection measures. Drones, increasingly sophisticated, present challenges that traditional fences cannot counter. Recognizing and addressing these aerial threats demand a proactive and layered defense strategy.

THE RISING THREAT OF DRONES

Drones, accessible and versatile, have emerged as significant security risks, threatening the safety of assets, personnel, and confidential information. This has propelled in the recent war in Ukraine. The ease of obtaining and manipulating these unmanned vehicles amplifies the urgency for effective drone detection solutions, capable of halting security breaches, production stoppages, and financial losses.

LIMITATIONS OF TRADITIONAL SOLUTIONS

Conventional drone detection systems, such as RF (Radio Frequency) and radar, offer baseline protection. However, advanced malicious drones are increasingly designed to evade these systems, making traditional methods insufficient. Read more about the need for passive detection methods.

HOW ACOUSTIC DETECTION REINFORCES SECURITY

At the forefront of CUAS technology, our solution employs acoustic drone detection to capture the unspoofable signatures of aerial threats. Squarehead's Discovair system utilizes acoustic sensors to fill the gaps left by other technologies, forming a robust "acoustic fence" around protected perimeters.

Our passive sensors detect drones by their acoustic signatures, including those with low RF-emissions or those flying below radar coverage. This technology offers a stealthy, all-weather operational advantage, crucial for border protection and ensuring an uninterrupted security posture.

INTEGRATION FOR COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE

To establish a robust defense, our system can be integrated with other drone detection technologies, creating a multi-layered sensor array that covers a 360-degree “field of view”. This fusion of technologies ensures that any acoustic anomaly triggers an alert, allowing for real-time identification and classification of drones, effectively differentiating them from other environmental noises.

In partnership with border control and security forces, Squarehead are reforming perimeter defense with our acoustic CUAS detection systems. Discovair's precision and integration with other defense technologies provide a formidable barrier against unauthorized drones, safeguarding critical infrastructures and assets.
