BENGALURU: Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) manufacturing firm ideaForge and space tech startup GalaxEye have signed an MoU to jointly develop a pioneering UAV FOPEN (Foliage Penetration) radar customised for security forces for enhanced aerial surveillance and mapping capabilities.
The proposed solution aims to address the unique demands of the operations that involve penetrating dense foliage, ensuring seamless monitoring while overcoming obstructions. This has been one of the requirements of the security forces to see under foliage and through fog.
Under this collaboration, ideaForge will contribute its expertise in UAV technology, blending it with GalaxEye’s Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology. Additionally, GalaxEye will provide technical support in optimising the integrated solution to deliver enhanced monitoring capabilities even in challenging scenarios.
“This Foliage Penetrating UAV Radar system will overcome obstructions like clouds, fog, smoke, mist, camouflage nets, and dense tree-canopy foliage, that often hinder surveillance operations. Further, the MoU also includes the development of a high-resolution 3D imaging foliage-penetrating radar. When mounted on a UAV, this radar will function as an all-weather surveillance payload that can identify objects obscured by foliage or camouflage by providing tactical real-time ground photography,” a statement issued here read.
ideaForge has recently incorporated the integration of third-party payloads into its UAV platforms, enabling versatile payload options and a wider range of compatible solutions to its end-customers. This, the firm said, will enhance the drone missions and foster an ecosystem where system integrators and hardware developers can create new and innovative applications based on ideaForge’s drone platforms.
Ankit Mehta, CEO, ideaForge, said: “We are excited to partner with GalaxEye to develop cutting-edge solutions in aerial surveillance and mapping, which will greatly enhance the capabilities of our security forces and aid them in their endeavours to guard the nation against existing and future threats. This collaboration represents a significant step forward in our commitment to providing our customers with the most advanced and innovative technology.”
Suyash Singh, co-founder and CEO, GalaxEye said adding the new dimension to SAR technology, in partnership combined with ideaForge’s expertise, will empower security agencies with unparalleled unprecedented advantages in challenging operational scenarios with minimal operations effort.
