Drone detection for critical infrastructure

Sentinel designs and builds sensors that find a drone by its radio signal, confirm it on camera and pick up the ones that fly without a radio link. Designed and made in Slovakia.

One sensor isn't enough

Most drones stay in radio contact with their pilot, so passive RF detection finds them early and without giving the site away. That includes FPV and home-built drones, which systems built on a library of known protocols can miss.

Radio alone has two weak points, though. In a city or at an airport the spectrum is crowded, and every false alarm costs the operator's trust. And more and more drones transmit nothing at all: they fly a pre-programmed route or are steered over a fibre-optic cable. That's why we combine three sensors.

Icarus

Passive RF sensor

Icarus listens to the radio spectrum around the site and picks drone control and video links out of Wi-Fi, mobile networks and other traffic. It recognizes drones by how their radio behaves, not only by a list of known models.

  • Detects FPV and DIY drones
  • Gives the direction to the drone
  • Friendly drones can be marked and are ignored from then on
  • Receive-only: transmits nothing, interferes with nothing

V-555

Camera for validation and classification

V-555 checks an alert from Icarus visually and confirms what is actually there: a drone, a bird, or nothing. It classifies the drone by type and saves an image record of the event for the operator.

  • Fewer false alarms
  • Drone type classification
  • Image record of every event

A-343

Acoustic sensor

A-343 listens for the sound of propellers and motors. It covers what radio detection can't: drones that fly autonomously or are controlled over fibre-optic cable.

  • Detects drones with no radio link
  • Works day and night
  • Independent confirmation alongside radio and camera

Why Sentinel

Coverage for the whole site
Our sensors are priced so you can cover a whole perimeter with several of them, not just one point.
Alerts you can trust
A radio detection confirmed by camera or by sound holds up even in a busy city or an industrial site.
No RF engineer needed
Your security team gets alerts, not spectrum plots. Installation and day-to-day operation don't need a specialist.
Fits into larger systems
Alerts can go to your existing security platform or into a larger counter-drone system.
Made in Slovakia
Development, manufacturing and support are in Slovakia, in the EU.
