Acoustic Detection

The Roark Acoustic detection sensor is an acoustic array that passively detects and tracks class I and II drones using advanced machine learning algorithms. The device has 5 sensor panels, each sensor covers up to a 120-degree field of view, looking for acoustic changes within a network of constantly monitored sectors. Change in any acoustic sector triggers high-resolution acoustic beams that collect the sound of that change. The system then analyzes this information, classifies drones and is able to separate them from any other sounds in the area. As the system is trained on the propeller sound, it will recognize any drone, both current and future fixed and rotary wing systems. Equally important, the algorithm will suppress sound that is not a target and provide close to zero false positives.

Operation and user interface is provided either on a browser enabled network connected device, or through machine-to-machine API interface. Upon positive classification of a drone, the alarm, along with precise bearing to target, is forwarded to the operator screen or to the API-connected system.
