Customer
Security integrator
Use
Temporary drone detection for events, construction sites and short-term protection
Solution
Mast-top solid-state radar for 360° coverage; CoreCommand® and advanced analytics on edge servers in the trailer base
Timeline
Design package delivered; fielded by the partner
TKG role
Radar integration, custom mounts, wiring design, CoreCommand and analytics servers
Tow it in, run it the same day.
The integrator wanted drone detection it could tow to a site and run the same day, for events and temporary protection.
The design had to fit a trailer mast’s weight limit and a battery or generator power budget, and be simple enough for field crews to set up.
The solution
- Mast-top radar on custom TKG mounts for full 360° coverage
- CoreCommand and advanced analytics on compact edge servers in the trailer base
- Light enough for a standard trailer mast, with no reinforcement
- Radars and servers run within typical trailer battery and solar capacity
- Standard Ethernet throughout; a documented build package for repeat trailers
What was delivered.
Design package
A documented build package, so every trailer is set up the same way
Mast-top payload
Within the mast’s rating; no reinforcement needed
Power budget
Within typical trailer battery and solar capacity
Keys to a successful implementation.
Standardize the build
Use one documented build so every trailer is set up the same way.
Plan power for the whole event
Including overnight, from the documented power budget for radars and servers.
Pick high, clear sites
A mast where buildings and trees do not block the radars matters more than detection range.
Train field crews on a checklist
Set-up, alignment, network and first-detection checks before the event opens.
Share the picture
With police and event security, so a detection turns into a response on the ground.
