SkyWall100

SkyWall100 provides security authorities with a cost effective means of dealing with the drone threat. It allows an operator to physically capture a drone allowing forensic examination and ensuring the control of a situation is maintained. The system consists of a compressed air powered launcher and an intelligent projectile. The launcher is equipped with a SmartScope that uses computerized targeting to ensure both static and moving targets are intercepted. The projectile deploys a specially designed net at precisely the right time to entangle a drone. A parachute is then released that controls the descent of the captured drone and tethered projectile components ensuring public safety.
