  • Publication number: 20250060198
    Abstract: A system and corresponding method are presented. The system comprising a primary radar system comprising one or more phased array antenna systems, a sensor arrangement, and a control system. The sensor arrangement comprises one or more sensors configured for collecting sensing data indicative of presence and location of one or more unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV's) within a predetermined region, and to provide said sensing data to the control system. The control system comprises at least one processor configured for processing the sensing data, determining a need to deactivate score for the one or more UAV's, and generating operational instructions to the primary radar system for generating deactivation beam directed toward location of said one or more UAV's, thereby deactivating said one or more UAV's.

  • Publication number: 20240302514
    Abstract: A computerized system is configured to detect optical and acoustic events. It is operatively coupled to optical sensor(s) and acoustic sensor(s). It comprises a processing circuitry configured to perform the following: (a) receiving optical data from the optical sensor(s), indicative of optical event(s) associated with an event source(s). (b) receiving acoustic data from the acoustic sensor, indicative of acoustic event(s) associated with the event source. The optical sensor and the acoustic sensor are time-synchronized. (c) identifying the optical and acoustic events, based at least on the optical and acoustic data, (d) determining at least one of: distance and direction of the event source, relative to one or more of the optical sensor and the acoustic sensor. The determination is based at least on the optical event, the acoustic event, the optical data and the acoustic data.

  • Publication number: 20240015432
    Abstract: An acoustic many-to-many localization, communication and management system serving a group whose members are moving or maneuvering, the system comprising plural portable hardware devices which may be distributed to plural group members respectively, each device including at least one array of speakers and/or at least one array of microphones, and/or at least one hardware processor, some or all typically co-located. Typically, the hardware processor in at least one device d1 from among the devices controls d1's speaker to at least once broadcast a first signal (e.g. “localization request signal”) at a time t_zero. Typically the hardware processor in device d1 at least once computes at least one of angle and distance between d2 and d1, to monitor locations of other group members who may be on the move.

  • Patent number: 11378676
    Abstract: A device for detecting and/or tracking a projectile has a receiving antenna, for receiving at least an electromagnetic signal emitted by at least one radar, at least one amplifier configured to amplify the electromagnetic signal received by the receiving antenna, and at least one emitting antenna. The emitting antenna is configured to return, at an output of the device, an amplified electromagnetic signal for calculating data indicative of the trajectory of the projectile based at least on the amplified electromagnetic signal. A system for detecting a projectile has a transmitting device mounted on the projectile, a radar configured to sense an electromagnetic signal produced and sent by the transmitting device. The signals emitted from the projectile are limited to the electromagnetic signal sent by the transmitting device, and a processing unit, configured to calculate data indicative of the trajectory of the projectile, based on the sensing of the electromagnetic signal.
