Australia’s DroneShield has partnered with Dutch firm Robin Radar Systems to integrate 3D radar technology into its counter – drone architecture, expanding detection capabilities across its sensor ecosystem.

The addition of radar strengthens the system’s ability to monitor airspace over wide areas and track small, low – flying objects such as drones, particularly in complex environments where visibility or terrain can limit other sensors.

Robin Radar’s systems provide 360 – degree, three – dimensional coverage and are designed to reliably detect and classify airborne targets.

This data is fed into DroneShield’s DroneSentry – C2, a command – and – control platform that creates a unified, real-time operational picture by integrating inputs from both DroneShield and third – party sensors.

The system supports detection, tracking, and response functions, and can be deployed either via secure cloud infrastructure or on – premises servers, depending on operational requirements.

At the core of this setup is SensorFusionAI.

It combines data from multiple sensor types, such as radar, radio – frequency monitoring, and optical systems, to improve detection and classification accuracy.

By correlating inputs from different sources, the system reduces ambiguity and supports more reliable decision – making when identifying potential drone threats.

“Operators need systems that adapt to their mission, not the other way around,” said Angus Bean, DroneShield Chief Product Officer.

“By partnering with Robin Radar Systems and expanding our sensor marketplace, we give customers more freedom to design their airspace security architecture, while SensorFusionAI ensures that all sensor inputs are fused into insights that support decisive action.”
