Dronetag's New Pocket-Sized Drone Detection System

Czech Republic-based startup Dronetag has launched a new pocket-sized drone-agnostic Remote ID receiver, RIDER, amid the rise in unidentified drone sightings in U.S. airspace.


While counter UAS systems focus on neutralizing unididentified drones, Dronetag's new technology is a wireless portable system that provides real-time situational awareness. The device is capable of tracking Remote ID signals from commercially operated drones, and transmit that information to a mobile application.


Lukáš Brchl, CEO and Founder of Dronetag, said a major goal for the company's with its drone detection technology is to lower the cost of providing awareness of commercially operated drones in public airspace. "RIDER provides a 'Level 0' solution for situational awareness, offering three connectivity options for real-time data sharing: integrated LTE, Bluetooth, or USB-C." Brchl says, "While mobile phones were initially expected to handle such tasks, their technical limitations left a gap that RIDER now fills seamlessly."


On this episode of the Aerospace & Defense Technology podcast, Brchl explains how the RIDER system works and how it can be used by public safety agencies and drone operators for real-time awareness of commercially operated drones in public airspace.
