- Israeli defense-tech company Axon Vision has integrated its AI system with Czech radar and command-and-control systems to detect drone threats.
- The successful trial in the Czech Republic demonstrated the combined system's ability to provide a unified, multi-sensor target picture for operators.
- This integration aims to enhance counter-drone missions by combining radar and electro-optical sensing for faster detection and improved situational awareness.
Israeli defense-tech firm Axon Vision has successfully demonstrated its AI-driven EDGE ClearSky system integrated with Czech radar and command-and-control technology. The trial, conducted in the Czech Republic, showcased the system's multi-sensor capabilities for detecting and tracking drone threats.
The integration combined Axon Vision's AI and thermal sensing with RETIA's radar detection and TSG's command-and-control system. This created a unified target picture for operators, highlighting the operational value of merging radar and electro-optical sensing in counter-drone missions. The open-field trial simulated operational environments, confirming the systems could synchronize, exchange data in real time, and present drone targets on a C2 display.
Axon Vision's EdgeUAV system is designed for enhanced operational capabilities on unmanned platforms, including drones and loitering munitions. It supports full mission execution from target acquisition to engagement, featuring real-time video processing, automatic target recognition, and multi-object tracking across various spectral bands for day and night operations. Its modular design and user-friendly interface facilitate integration with existing platforms and large-scale deployment.
"Drone threats continue to create new operational challenges for defense and security forces worldwide, requiring faster detection, improved situational awareness, and the ability to integrate multiple sensing capabilities into a single operational picture," said Neri Zin, CEO of Axon Vision. "The successful integration in the Czech Republic demonstrates the flexibility of our system."
