  • Publication number: 20250279006
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for identifying and tracking UAVs including an image capturing device. A computing device can receive a frame captured via an image capturing device configured to monitor a particular air space. The computing device can identify a region of interest (ROI) in the frame. The ROI can include an image of an object. The computing device can perform a background subtraction process on the frame. The computing device can scale the frame to a uniform size. The computing device can perform a comparison of the frame to reference images. The reference images can include known unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) images and known non-UAV images. The computing device can classify the object with a UAV classification based on the comparison.

  • Publication number: 20250279005
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for identifying and tracking UAVs including a computing device and a Wi-Fi sensor. The computing device can receive Wi-Fi data from the Wi-Fi sensor comprising an RSSI and a MAC address. The computing device can determine an estimated proximity of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based on the RSSI. The computing device can compare the estimated proximity to a signal threshold. The computing device can determine whether the MAC address matches one of a plurality of known UAV MAC addresses. The computing device can apply rule set to determine an action to take. The computing device can perform the action.

  • Patent number: 12333947
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for identifying and tracking UAVs including a plurality of sensors operatively connected over a network to a configuration of software and/or hardware. A computing device can tune the RF receiver to a particular frequency set. The computing device can receive RF signal data corresponding to a plurality of RF signals via the RF receiver. The computing device can detect a plurality of signal characteristics corresponding to the plurality of RF signals from the RF signal data. The computing device can identify a matching RF signal by comparing the RF signal data to a plurality of known RF signals. The computing device can apply a predetermined rule set to the matching RF signal to determine at least one action to take.

  • Patent number: 12272252
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for performing an action when an aggregated confidence measure. Data is received from a first sensor proximate to a particular air space. Data is also received from a second sensor and a third sensor proximate to the particular air space. The data from the first sensor, second sensor, and third sensor are each analyzed to determine respective confidence measures that a UAV is within the particular air space. The first sensor corresponds to a first type of data, the second sensor corresponds to a second type of data, and the third sensor corresponds to a third type of data. The confidence measures from each sensor are aggregated together to generate a combined confidence measure indicating a possible presence of the UAV within in the particular air space. When the combined confidence measure exceeds a threshold, an action is taken.

  • Publication number: 20200356783
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for identifying and tracking UAVs including a plurality of sensors operatively connected over a network to a configuration of software and/or hardware. Generally, the plurality of sensors monitors a particular environment and transmits the sensor data to the configuration of software and/or hardware. The data from each individual sensor can be directed towards a process configured to best determine if a UAV is present or approaching the monitored environment. The system generally allows for a detected UAV to be tracked, which may allow for the system or a user of the system to predict how the UAV will continue to behave over time. The sensor information as well as the results generated from the systems and methods may be stored in one or more databases in order to improve the continued identifying and tracking of UAVs.
