VP Defence & Security
We are Robin Radar Systems. Netherlands-based technology leader in radar systems for tracking and classification of small targets. We do that by combining affordable sensors with smart software. Our mission is to provide actionable information that increases safety for both humans and wildlife.
Bird Strike Prevention in Aviation
We developed bird radar systems to monitor and store bird movements around the clock up, to 10 kilometres, all around. The information is dispatched real time onto tablets in Bird Control Vehicles as well as logged for analysis afterwards. This significantly enhances awareness and provides management information about trends, new hotspots and the overall effectiveness in terms of objective KPI’s.
Bird Monitoring in Wind Farms
In a growing amount of cases, a permit to build a wind farm is given under the pre-condition that bird movements are monitored 24/7 during pre and post construction of the park. Then, a bird radar becomes a permanent part of the wind farms’ infrastructure. In some cases a ‘start-stop-mechanism’ is required: the Robin system monitors bird movements in real time, and is able to automatically shut down individual turbines to mitigate mortality.
Drone Detection in Critical Environments
Small Unmanned Arial Vehicles (UAV’s) or ‘drones’ pose a lot of new opportunities, but they also bring severe safety and security threats. Demand for high-performing drone detection and intervention methods continues to increase. Our purpose-built drone detection radars, ELVIRA® and IRIS® can automatically distinguish birds from drones. These systems are sold via larger system integrators in the defense & security industry.
