Product Overview
The PD1 Handheld Drone Detector is a compact, carry-on device designed for real-time drone detection, identification, and alerting. Using passive RF sensing technology, PD1 continuously monitors surrounding radio signals and applies deep learning algorithms to accurately distinguish drone communications from background noise.
When a drone is detected, the device immediately triggers sound and/or visual alarms to notify the operator. With an optional direction-finding (DF) antenna, PD1 can also determine the rough azimuth direction of an approaching drone, significantly improving situational awareness in the field.
Lightweight, rugged, and easy to operate, PD1 is ideal for mobile security, event protection, patrol operations, and temporary deployment scenarios.
