Indian Army Deploys AI Gunshot Detection Drones
The Indian Army is using a new system that combines drones and AI to detect gunshots and respond quickly.
This system, developed by DroneVerse and Triangula, can identify different types of gunfire and send a drone to the location within seconds.
The drone provides live video to commanders and can even drop ammunition to neutralize threats.
Over 90% of the system's parts are made in India, ensuring self-reliance and security.
The system has been tested successfully and will be used in high-risk areas.
DroneVerse and Triangula developed an AI Gunshot Detection and Autonomous Drone Response System for the Indian Army.
The system achieves over 90% indigenisation, ensuring supply-chain security and national self-reliance.
It detects and classifies various types of gunfire and deploys drones to provide real-time aerial intelligence.
Drones launch in under four seconds, stream live imagery, and can drop ammunition on confirmed threats.
The system has been tested and validated under Indian operational conditions and will be deployed in high-risk zones.
