Drone Detection for Law Enforcement
A modern drone can easily carry a payload weighing a couple of pounds. Drones can be modified to carry and drop guns, chemicals, and explosives. Videos on Youtube show drones retrofitted with guns that can fire remotely or customized with a flamethrower. As drone use increases, law enforcement has to deal with the risk of people using drones for nefarious purposes.
Even high-profile gangs and the cartel are using drones to spy on law enforcement to capture video and gain intel, know whereabouts of officers, and in some cases to smuggle contraband across the border.
Law Enforcement and first responders need to be aware of potential threats from the air. Knowing which drones are flying in a certain area, their make and models, their payload capacities and the paths that they are on, can all be useful information that helps officers determine the level of risk posed by each threat. Knowing the location of the drone pilot can help officers respond to any evolving situation.
Law Enforcement can also develop policies and procedures based on historical data of drone flights over a region and ensure front-line decisions and actions conform with federal, state, local laws. Airsight Security’s drone detection software platform called AirGuard enables officials to do all of the above.
