We have designed our Aerial platforms to accommodate custom payloads allowing us to loft various instruments for scientific study.
3D Design & Printing Custom Payload Mounts
We work closely with our science and engineering partners to ensure that we can safely loft the required payloads for each SBIR.
Supporting scientists with designing a light, aerodynamic payload
Design and build custom mounts and safety systems for attaching unique payloads to aerostat and drone platforms
Design / Integrate stabilization systems to increase data collection.
This is a sample of a 3D printed payload.
Let Us Build You OneNeed a Custom, Turn-Key Launch Trailer?
Our specialized facility can accommodate aerostats, fixed-wing drones, and multirotor drones.
TRAILER CAPABILITIES
Climate-controlled command center reduces crew fatigue during 24/7 deployments.
50’ EO/IR periscope mast with guy wires, which allow elevated surveillance platforms to operate in up to 40mph winds.
Elevated observation deck improves staffs situational awareness with ability to look and listen in 360 degrees from 17ft off the ground.
240 v generator, 120 and 12 voltages allows redundancy and longer missions.
Our mobile observation trailer can be towed at 60 mph, and set up for elevated RC/IR/EOS observations within 9 minutes of arrival.
Fiber optic, coax, RS-232 or wireless connection from the mast to trailer-based monitoring station
OPTICAL SURVEILLANCE
Elevated remotely controlled 50’ EO/IR periscope with powerful remotely controlled range finder binoculars. The data can be can be sent to TSA, FBI, or other airport security teams.
State of the art 40“ HD display screens in dark room enhances ability discern small and distant drone images.
Dedicated Artificial Intelligence algorithms to help classify common drone shapes (up to 1km). (AI training not included)
AUDIO SURVEILLANCE
Optional “big ear” acoustical listening and recording device to improve ability to hear incoming drones. (Type and cost is TBD)
RF SPECTRUM SURVEILLANCE
Elevated Radio Spectrometer antennas increases chance to detect the location of drones/ drone pilots. (Type and cost is TBD)
VISIBILITY DETERRENT
Mobile Command center FAA red and white strobe lights, rooftop “Security” signage and powerful search light helps illuminate and potentially deter stealth drone attacks near runways at night.
RADIO REPEATERS
Mast-based (or moored balloon-based ) encrypted radio repeaters to keep pilots and airport security communications staff connected when deployed at distant runway stake out locations
COUNTER DRONE MEASURES
DDIS mobile field office can help host some of client’s counter drone equipment. This includes 220 v power supply and stealth elevated turret mounts for “RF Jamming” equipment.
DDIS’s catapult for safe rapid launch of “chaser” drones, or small 20lb Radar dishes mounted to 49ft. panning masts.
MARITIME COVERAGE
Since most major international airports are near maritime ports UAV-Monitoring offers rapidly deployed Mil Spec boat for shallow water patrols.
Powerful stabilized range finding binoculars can be handheld or mounted on our 10 meter portable mast for an elevated survey of shallow coastal areas in heavy winds.
Specializing in aerial photography, viewshed analysis, visual impact surveys, and balloon tests and drone tests for marketing, zoning, site planning, and architectural design.
