Belarus Develops Acoustic System for Detecting Fibre-Optic Drones

Company “InnoTech Solutions” has developed the ALS “SCANNER 2.1” acoustic system, which effectively detects fibre-optic drones, the State Authority for Military Industry reported.

The system is designed to create a detection and bearing zone for quadcopter-type UAVs with electric motors, detect fixed-wing UAVs and determine their flight parameters (speed and course), and to be used as part of mobile groups for protecting facilities and personnel.

Depending on the acoustic environment, the system is capable of detecting FPV drones at distances of 100–300 metres and internal combustion engine UAVs at distances of 1,000–1,500 metres.

The “SCANNER 2.1” is designed for mobility and compactness: the device has a diameter of 23 cm and can be deployed in less than two minutes.

Artificial intelligence algorithms are used to filter out background noise and identify the characteristic acoustic signature of FPV drones. Operator alerts are also transmitted to a smartphone screen and smart watch.
