Abstract: A system to remotely detect and identify an airborne drone presenting a flight risk to crewed aircraft. A warning of the hazardous drone is provided to the crewed aircraft. An airborne drone is observed by any of several means, to include for example by receipt of drone location or identification data transmitted by the drone, the crewed aircraft, or a ground-based system, or through a sensor positioned on the ground, on the drone, or aboard the crewed aircraft. The safety warning and real-time observation of a hazardous drone may be shared among other crewed aircraft or drones, in particular to other subscribing aircraft and/or drones approaching the airspace of the hazardous drone.

Abstract: A system to remotely detect and identify an airborne drone presenting a flight risk to piloted aircraft. A warning of the hazardous drone is presented to the piloted aircraft. An airborne drone is observed by any of several means, to include receipt of drone location or identification data broadcast by the drone or broadcast by a ground-based system, or through a piloted aircraft airborne sensor. The safety warning and real-time observation of a hazardous drone may be shared among other piloted aircraft, in particular to other subscribing aircraft approaching the airspace of the hazardous drone.

Abstract: A system to detect an airborne drone presenting a flight risk to piloted aircraft and to warn the piloted aircraft of the detected drone. An airborne drone is detected by any of several means, to include receipt of drone location or identification data broadcast by the drone or a ground-based system, or through a piloted aircraft airborne sensor. The safety warning and real-time detection of a hazardous drone may be shared among other piloted aircraft, to include aircraft unequipped with airborne sensors.

Abstract: An aviation system to identify and avoid airborne drones presenting a flight risk to piloted aircraft. Hazardous drones are identified through piloted aircraft airborne sensors and combined with any available knowledge of anticipated drone activity to provide a safety warning to the piloted aircraft. The safety warning and real-time identification of hazardous drones may be shared among multiple piloted aircraft, to include aircraft unequipped with airborne sensors.

Abstract: A system and method to alert pilots of the presence of drone aircraft and to document or report errant drone flight operations, in particular to alert and report drone aircraft which may present a hazard to a piloted aircraft and/or are operating outside governing regulations. In one embodiment, the system comprises a surveillance subsystem configured to identify a drone operating in an airspace adjacent the aircraft; an imaging subsystem configured to acquire at least one image of the drone; a triggering subsystem interconnected with the surveillance subsystem and configured to activate the imaging subsystem; a navigational subsystem configured to provide aircraft state data associated with the at least one image; and a communication subsystem configured to transmit the at least one image and the associated aircraft state data to a receiving station; wherein the at least one image and the associated aircraft state data are transmitted to the receiving station.
