Abstract: A drone detection apparatus and method for same, that provides a real time solution for detecting drones and informing and alerting a user. The apparatus includes a housing with a processor and memory, at least one indicator, at least one switch, a connector, a radio, an antenna and a power source; and a housing-carrier in which the housing is removably secured. When a drone transmits an identification broadcast message the processor has the ability to receive and recognize the identification broadcast message. The apparatus can receive a remote identification message intermittently broadcast from a drone and can send, forward and receive alerts to and from one or more remote devices.

Abstract: A removably attachable sampling and analysis apparatus for use with a drone which includes a housing member, a flotation member, at least two connecting members, a collapsible framework and sensors. A preferred embodiment of the present invention enables rapid deployment of the sampling and analysis apparatus to multiple target locations on a body of water to take water quality measurements and samples. The sampling and analysis apparatus can also be utilized in other applications such as soil measurements and sample collection, agricultural and forestry applications, as well as with gas sensors to measure air quality and map values in 3D space with a time stamp.
