01 / Sense
Passive sensor nodes
Compact nodes are sited around the protected area and listen across the bands used by commercial drone control, video, and Remote ID broadcasts.
A Dominion Systems product
SKYPOSEIDON
Counter-UAS airspace security.
Detect. Identify. Localise.
001 / Overview
Every drone in your airspace, in real time.
SKYPOSEIDON is a counter-UAS airspace security platform. It gives an operator a live picture of every drone in their airspace, showing what each drone is, where it is, and where it is being flown from, across the bands used by modern commercial drones.
Coverage spans 20+ RF profiles across the dominant commercial manufacturers (DJI, Autel, Parrot, Skydio and others), and includes decode of the major control, video, and Remote ID protocols, including ASTM F3411.
002 / Approach
Distributed, passive, software-defined.
SKYPOSEIDON is a distributed sensor system, not a single piece of hardware. Detection is entirely passive, with no emissions, no spectrum licensing, and no interference with airport, prison, or event RF.
02 / Fuse
Multi-node fusion
A central master fuses the streams from every node in real time. RF fingerprinting identifies the airframe; multi-node geolocation places it on the map.
03 / Surface
Single tactical display
Operators see live tracks, classification, confidence, and full event history in one console, fed straight to the people who need to act.
003 / Use cases
Built for the hardest sites.
A verified track on a map, with the operator located, in real time. That is what enables a response, not just an alarm.
A / Airports
Stop a runway closure.
A single incursion can close a major airport for hours and cost millions. SKYPOSEIDON flags the threat before the perimeter is breached, classifies the airframe, and locates the operator, turning a runway closure into a targeted response.
B / Prisons
Intercept the operator.
Small drones are now the dominant contraband-delivery vector over prison walls. SKYPOSEIDON detects the launch, tracks the approach, and pinpoints the pilot, enabling officers or local police to intercept the operator rather than chase the payload.
C / Live events
Cover the gap radar leaves.
Stadiums, festivals, and political gatherings are soft targets with no radar coverage and crowded RF environments. SKYPOSEIDON deploys for the duration of the event without disrupting broadcast, comms, or audience networks.
004 / Deployment
Live the same day it's wired.
A typical SKYPOSEIDON site goes from delivery to operational in hours, not weeks. A temporary event deployment can be stood up and recovered by a two-person team.
- PoE-powered nodes. One Cat-6 cable per node carries both power and data. No separate mains, no RF cabling.
- Line-of-sight siting. Rooftops, light poles, towers. No dishes, no rotators, no foundations, no planning consent.
- Standard master. A small-form-factor server or laptop on the same network.
- Receive-only. No transmit licensing required.
005 / Update model
Software push, not procurement cycle.
Legacy radar against small drones is structurally limited. Small airframes are at or below the radar cross-section of birds, hardware is built around fixed antennas and waveforms, and firmware is updated only on vendor site visits. SKYPOSEIDON is the inverse.
Legacy radar
Hardware-locked.
Fixed antennas. Fixed waveforms. Vendor-scheduled firmware. A new drone model on the market generally means a hardware refresh on site.
SKYPOSEIDON
Software-defined.
Signed over-the-air updates push new airframe profiles, classifiers and protocol coverage to every node in the fleet. Versioned, tamper-resistant, and auditable per node.
