General information

Short Summary
An Estonian startup developing software to detect drone pilots locations machine learning software that uses Remote Sensing data combined with geoinfosystems.


The Company is looking for possible clients in Europe to co develop its product.
Full Description
An Estonian startup that is developing a machine lernig based software for drone pilot detection.
Their software solutions help to surveillance and protect sensitive areas from possible drone attacks or spying; monitor and organize drone traffic in cities or over larger areas; detect drone pilots in real time or help industrial drones to complete fully automated tasks.

The software is based on three pillars: radio signal propagation, topographical 3D modelling of the underlying terrain and segmentation from satellite images. We use the data from those three subsets to create a 3D world, detect radio signal propagation, find areas of interest and combine this data, using our own patented methodology, to generate a probability map for the drone operator’s possible locations.
Current result consists of:
1. Radio signal propagation in a 3D landscape, including semi-transparent environments like forests
2. Roads, the pilot is more likely to be close to a road for better access (usually with a car)
3. Water bodies, the pilot is less likely to be in a lake or sea
4. Direction, considering the initial detection, the pilot is usually in opposite the direction of the movement between the initial movement
5. Open areas, a pilot is more likely to operate in areas that provide sufficient initial vision for takeoff and landing
6. Custom, in some cases it is known that the operator cannot be in a certain area, for example inside a secure location or on a rooftop that is restricted

Cooperation seeked:

Big companies: To offer their services and customise product for specific clients needs
R&D Institutions: To cooperate for further development of their product
Advantages and Innovations
Real time drone surveillance and drone attack protection

Their drone surveillance software is an A.I.-powered self-learning system to monitor and protect large scale border areas, high sensitivity infrastructure objects, military bases or prisons.

Real time drone traffic control and management

Their software for drone traffic control and drone fleet management. Get great overview and communicate with all participants of drone airspace.

Real time drone pilot detection solution. Also as a service.

Their innovative drone pilot location detection is a patent pending machine-learning based real time solution to locate drone operators even without using RF sensors. Also available as microservice (API).

Automated navigation solution for drone-based logistics

Their software for autonomous drone navigation. Makes easier to develop and implement any kind of automated drone tasks.

Realistic drone simulation solution for software developers and military trainings

They use accumulated knowledge from all their drone software development related projects to build realistic drone simulation solution.
