Zen unveils portable anti-drone system for border operations
Zen Technologies has introduced a new portable anti-drone system that can detect drones up to 5 kilometers away.
This system works by scanning a wide range of radio frequencies and can jam drone signals up to 3 kilometers.
It was launched on Kargil Vijay Diwas, which is a significant day for India's military.
The system is designed to help secure high-altitude border areas by disrupting drone command links and GPS signals.
It can be carried by soldiers or transported using pack animals, all-terrain vehicles, and unmanned ground vehicles.
The system can track multiple drones simultaneously and operates in diverse weather conditions.
While this technology is seen as a major advancement for national security, some people are concerned about its impact on privacy and civilian drone operations.
Zen Technologies launched a portable anti-drone system on Kargil Vijay Diwas.
The system can detect drones up to 5 km by scanning the 400 MHz to 6 GHz frequency spectrum.
It provides omni-directional jamming of up to 3 km to disrupt drone command links and GPS signals.
The system is designed for high-altitude border operations and can be carried by soldiers or transported using pack animals, ATVs, and UGVs.
The system can track multiple drones simultaneously and operates in diverse weather conditions.
