Echodyne is collaborating with Poland’s Military Institute of Armored and Automotive Technology (WITPiS) to integrate Counter-Unmanned Aerial System (C-UAS) radars into Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs).
WITPiS is a leading research and development center in the field of land vehicle technology. The teams will work together to assess, integrate, and identify potential uses for Echodyne’s C-UAS radars in UGVs developed by WITPiS and its industrial partners.
The collaboration will also involve Echodyne’s long-time partner and distributor in Poland, Linc Polska. The three entities plan to work together to test, demonstrate, and present the capabilities of C-UAS radar technology within WITPiS’ UGVs, identifying both civil and military applications for the radar-enabled vehicles in the region.
Echodyne’s 4D metamaterials electronically scanned array (MESA) radars are designed to provide the reliable precision tracking capabilities needed for fixed, portable, and on-the-move C-UAS missions. The company states that its radars consistently generate a high-fidelity view of the airspace, detecting and tracking UAS intruders with pinpoint accuracy, based on the belief that data fidelity is critical to C-UAS mission success.
Eben Frankenberg, CEO of Echodyne, commented, “The Military Institute of Armored and Automotive Technology brings critical expertise to our collaboration to deliver best-in-class ground-based systems for detection and situational awareness. As Allied militaries increasingly put the spotlight on modernizing their land force capabilities, Echodyne looks forward to continuing to demonstrate how our MESA radars provide the highest performance for on-the-move threat detection, and integration into larger counter-UAS and defense systems.”
Harald Dingemans, CEO at Linc Polska, added, “Echodyne’s been a long-time partner of ours and we know exactly what their consistent, reliable radar technology is capable of. We look forward to showcasing different ways the radar technology can support the modernization of land capabilities with WITPiS UGVs.”
