Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting, monitoring, and mitigating the presence of a drone are provided herein. In one aspect, a system for detecting presence of a drone includes a radio-frequency (RF) receiver. The system can further include a processor and a computer-readable memory in communication with the processor and having stored thereon computer-executable instructions to cause the at least one processor to receive a set of samples from the RF receiver for a time interval, obtain predetermined data of expected communication protocols used between the drone and a controller, and determine whether the RF signal corresponds to one of the expected communication protocols by comparing the samples of the RF signal to the predetermined data and decoding the RF signal. In further aspects the system extracts a unique identifier of the drone based at least partially on the decoded RF signal.

Abstract: A device for capturing at least three views of an object with a camera includes a housing having a cavity. A slot in the housing communicates with the cavity and is adapted to accept an object. A plurality of mirrors in the cavity reflects at least three views of the object towards the camera, allowing the camera to capture an image of the views. A system for capturing multiple views of an object includes a housing having a cavity. A slot in the housing communicates with the cavity and is adapted to receive an object. A camera, a light source, and a plurality of mirrors in the cavity reflect at least three views of the object towards the camera, allowing the camera to capture an image three views.

Abstract: An apparatus for protecting sprouting seeds, seedlings and plants, hereinafter referred to as “plant material”, from damage by crawling insects, antrhopoda, and gastropoda, hereinafter referred to as “crawling pests”, and various beetles, moths and butterflies, hereinafter referred to as “flying pests”, and for enhancing the rate of growth which comprises a formed smooth plastic or metal frame the lower portion of which is inserted into the ground, the upper edge of which extends outwards and then downwards wherein this formed edge creates a barrier for crawling pests, the inside of which is a reflective colour wherein sunlight reflected from the interior surfaces enhances the early stage growth of plants contained within, the top of which can be covered with a removable frame with integrated insect cloth wherein such cloth prevents access to flying pests, the top of which can be covered with a removal frame with integrated transparent material to help create a warmer and more humid microclimate to counteract
