The Warden
Hyperspectral Optical Radar

Autonomous, real-time, wide-area, optical & hyperspectral search sensor optimized for Integrator UAS

The world’s first real-time, area scan, hyperspectral sensor that provides complete domain awareness in
all conditions and environments, both day and night. Artificial Intelligence operating on the edge
autonomously detects, recognizes, locates and tracks all objects, providing on-demand situational awareness.

Wide-Area Detect & Classify

Operates in land, riverine, estuarine, littoral, coastal and open-ocean environments.

AI Operating on the Edge

Real-time detection, recognition and tracking of all objects using onboard AI orchestration and data fusion engine, even through obscurants and whitecaps.

Autonomous Tracking

Completely autonomous spectral
signature target identification – no need to process target data for false positives
