AVGARDE DroneAstra™ Platform

A comprehensive suite for AI-enabled aerial object sensing and situational awareness for low-altitude drone detection and countermeasures

Technology

The DroneAstra ™ platform is leveraging a proprietary deep neural model for micro-doppler signature classification and analysis, alongside a unique parallel algorithm for low latency range-doppler mapping. With an integrated approach, the platform offers actionable data, decisioning tools and counter-measures for Situational Awareness and Risk Mitigation in Low-Altitude Airspace (LAA) in context of drones, UAVs, birds and other aerial objects.

A drone is hovering outdoors against a scenic backdrop of hills and a blurred background. The focus is on the drone, with its rotors spinning and a metallic finish.
