Critical Infrastructure Security

The company designed both a tower and a drone to provide security footage for military and critical infrastructure sites. Artificial intelligence and sensors facilitate analysis and evaluation of all collected information. For example, by coupling video images with thermal maps, the system evaluates whether a human being or animal was captured on camera and sets an alarm if needed.  This reduces staff time to monitor captured video and make risk assessments.

The towers have minimal footprints and include sensor and networking technology as well as solar power. Customers can deploy them quickly and they require minimal support even in harsh conditions. The towers perform real-time analysis, and filter data to optimize transmission payloads. Users can augment the towers with mission-specific equipment.

The drones are compact, portable, waterproof, resistant to elements like salt, and quieter than consumer drones. Customers can autonomously operate them for missions in excess of 90 minutes. 

The company’s cloud platform uses artificial intelligence, machine learning, and mesh networking to provide an accurate operating picture and integrates third-party data to provide complete situational awareness.

Both solutions are designed for military and commercial applications and incorporate the Sierra Wireless EM9190 5G module to enable real-time communications with the company’s cloud infrastructure. The EM9190 is a global 5G module that supports both 5G NR sub-6 and mmWave technologies. It delivers unprecedented bandwidth and network performance while providing end-to-end data security.
