Passive station for drone detection, identification and tracking up to 8 km with 360° coverage. It receives Remote ID signals on the 2.4 and 5.8 GHz bands and returns, in under one second, the brand, model, serial number, position, altitude and speed of the drone and, when broadcast, the pilot’s position. It also integrates ADS-B and AIS reception, blacklist and whitelist management and perimeter protection with radar and audio-visual alarm. Management software included.

The Argus Drone Detection System works in receive mode only: it listens for the Remote ID signals broadcast by drones, decodes them and makes them available in real time in the management software, building a picture of the low-altitude situation across the monitored area.
A single compact unit to monitor the low-altitude airspace of airports, critical infrastructure, industrial sites and events: long-range detection, immediate identification of drones broadcasting Remote ID, continuous 24/7 operation and no radio emissions that could interfere with the surrounding electromagnetic environment.
The Argus Drone Detection System is a passive drone detection system built for organisations that need to know, at any moment, which drones are flying over or around a sensitive site. The unit receives the Remote ID messages broadcast by drones on the 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz bands and, thanks to directional antennas with 360° coverage, detects aircraft up to 8 km away with a response time of less than one second. For every identified drone it provides brand, model, serial number, heading, coordinates, altitude and speed, plus the pilot’s position when this is contained in the received signal.
The included management software, accessible from a web browser and a mobile app, displays drones on the map with colour-coded icons, manages blacklists and whitelists so that alarms are raised only for unauthorised drones, stores the track history and produces reports. The same interface brings together ADS-B data from manned aircraft and AIS data from vessels, with theoretical ranges of 200 km and 100 km respectively, along with environmental data from an optional weather module. With the optional software platform, an alternative to DJI FlightHub 2, the station can be linked to docks to send a drone towards the pilot’s position and gather documentation of the event.
The station is built in ABS with an IP66 protection rating, weighs about 5 kg and operates from -30°C to +55°C. It can be powered from 220 V mains, PoE, a 12 V power bank or a solar panel, and communicates via 4G, Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth, with multi-constellation GNSS positioning. A millimetre-wave radar, a red-blue strobe and a loudspeaker protect the unit against unauthorised approaches within 10 m. The system is dedicated to detection, identification and alerting, and can serve as the surveillance layer of a wider counter-drone architecture. Distributed by DroneBase, DJI Gold 5 Dealer certified ISO 9001:2015, with pre- and post-sales technical support, installation and operator training.

The station produces data; the included software turns it into something usable by whoever has to decide and, when needed, document. Accessible from a web browser and a mobile app, with direct access to the unit over the local network even without connectivity.
