Rohde & Schwarz Launches Budget-Friendly Counter-Drone System ARDRONIS Detect

Rohde & Schwarz has just unveiled their latest counter-drone solution, ARDRONIS Detect, aimed at making drone detection more accessible and affordable, according to an announcement from the company.

Advanced Detection Capabilities

The system’s got some impressive tech under the hood. It can pick up various drone signals, including FHSS (frequency-hopping spread spectrum) and both analog and digital video signals. That’s pretty crucial when you’re trying to spot different types of drones in your airspace.

User-Friendly Integration

What’s really cool about ARDRONIS Detect is how it plays nice with other systems. It runs through their ARDRONIS Control Center software, which they’ve made super user-friendly for scanning and monitoring drone signals. Plus, it works seamlessly with their other counter-drone tools like ARDRONIS Locate Compact, Advanced, and Effect.

Versatile Deployment Options

Jens Steinwandt, who heads up Product Management SPM/C-UAS at Rohde & Schwarz, seems pretty excited about what they’ve built. He says it’s “a game-changing counter drone solution that offers advanced detection and identification capabilities.” The system’s flexibility is a big selling point – you can set it up as a fixed installation or use it on the move.

Multiple Applications

According to Steinwandt, they’ve made sure it’ll work for all sorts of scenarios: “It is highly versatile and can be deployed in various settings, including fixed, semi-mobile, and mobile configurations.” He’s particularly keen on how easily it integrates with existing infrastructure, making it perfect for defense, security, and protecting critical facilities.

DroneXL’s Take

The timing of this release couldn’t be better, especially given the increasing concerns about drone incidents around sensitive areas. This kind of accessible counter-ドローン技術 is exactly what many security operations need. The system’s ability to detect and identify various types of drones while remaining cost-effective could be a game-changer for facilities looking to upgrade their drone security measures.
