SKYGUARD TACTICAL
Autonomous Acoustic Air Defense Network. Edge-Native. Zero-Latency.
/// MISSION BRIEF
THE PROBLEM: Unauthorized drone surveillance costs construction sites $50k/day in delays. Critical infrastructure faces persistent counter-UAS gaps. Film productions lose $150k per incident.
THE SOLUTION: SkyGuard uses a 4-stage machine learning pipeline to detect drone acoustic signatures in real-time. Unlike visual systems (defeated by darkness/weather), acoustic detection works 24/7.
Designed by a 25 Service Battalion veteran. Built for Operational Resilience.
/// DEPLOYMENT VECTORS
SkyGuard is architected for specific high-risk verticals where failure is not an option.
Remote Patrol & Interdiction
Canada's 8,891 km border faces increasing drone smuggling. SkyGuard mobile arrays allow patrol units to detect surveillance drones in weather conditions where visual systems fail.
Perimeter Defense
Power generation and telecommunications facilities require 24/7 protection. SkyGuard provides automated alerting for reconnaissance drones before they breach restricted airspace.
Site Integrity Monitoring
Unauthorized surveillance creates competitive leaks and safety violations. SkyGuard monitors the perimeter and sends SMS alerts to site security instantly.
IP Protection
Paparazzi drones cost productions $150k/incident. Mobile units with tactical radar displays integrate into existing security protocols for high-value shoots.
/// 4-STAGE CASCADE PIPELINE
Most systems are optimized for demos. SkyGuard is optimized for Silence (Low False Positives).
- 1. Harmonic Pre-Filter: Rejects 80% of biological noise (birds/wind) in 5ms using FFT.
- 2. MobileNetV2 Classification: Custom trained on 11 distinct drone signatures.
- 3. OOD Detection: Critical. Uses Mahalanobis distance to flag "Unknown/Modified" drones that don't match the database.
- 4. Temporal Smoothing: 7-frame rolling average prevents operator alert fatigue.
/// OPERATIONAL MODEL & PRICING
SkyGuard is deployed via a "Deploy & Sustain" doctrine. The software is an asset; the Threat Library is a subscription.
