Dedrone (Axon)
United States

AI/ML-driven command and control platform providing single-pane-of-glass airspace security through multi-sensor fusion and automated threat response.

DedroneTracker

System Overview

What It Is

DedroneTracker (also known as DedroneTracker.AI) is a comprehensive airspace security platform that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to detect, track, identify, and help neutralize drone threats through a unified software interface.

How It Works

The platform ingests data from multiple sensor types including RF analyzers, radars, acoustic sensors, and PTZ cameras. AI algorithms fuse this data to create unified tracks, classify threats against a database of 200+ known drone signatures, and can automatically cue mitigation systems for operator-authorized response.

Primary Capability

AI-powered C2 software for complete drone detection, tracking, identification, and mitigation workflow management.

Combat Record / Operational History

Deployed at hundreds of sites globally including airports, stadiums, prisons, and government facilities.
