Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) are increasingly used in modern conflicts and civilian applications, posing challenges for airspace security. This project aims to develop a distributed Counter Uncrewed Aircraft System (CUAS) capable of detecting and tracking UAS using innovative sensing and processing techniques. The system will consist of multiple modules that operate collaboratively to identify and localize UAS in a defined area.
Student teams will work to:
1. Explore sensing technologies (e.g., acoustic, visual, or other) to detect UAS signatures.
2. Investigate methods for processing and sharing data between distributed modules.
3. Design and prototype hardware and software solutions for detection, localization, and visualization of UAS.
