Rohde & Schwarz announced the launch of ARDRONIS Detect, a low-cost counter drone solution designed to detect and identify various types of drones.

ARDRONIS Detect is the basis component of the ARDRONIS system, which is a comprehensive counter-uncrewed aerial systems (C-UAS) solution that offers advanced detection, localization and identification capabilities. The system is designed to detect drones using a range of signals, including FHSS and analogue and digital video signals.

This new C-UAS solution operates via the ARDRONIS Control Center software, which provides a user-friendly interface for scanning, displaying detected signals and other options. It can be used in combination with existing command and control systems, including ARDRONIS Locate Compact, ARDRONIS Locate Advanced and ARDRONIS Effect.

"We are excited to launch ARDRONIS Detect, a game-changing counter drone solution that offers advanced detection and identification capabilities," said Jens Steinwandt, head of Product Management SPM/C-UAS at Rohde & Schwarz. "Our solution is designed to provide customers with a comprehensive and effective counter drone system that meets their specific needs and requirements."

“It is highly versatile and can be deployed in various settings, including fixed, semi-mobile and mobile configurations. The system is designed to be easily integrated with existing infrastructure, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of applications, including defense, security and critical infrastructure,” he continued.
