Strike avoidance &
warning systems
Birds have been flying for the last 151 million years. We have flown for just over 100. The average annual cost of bird strikes for DoD activities is estimated to be $75 million/ year, and for commercial aviation globally, $2 billion per year. With increasing numbers of drones competing for airspace with birds, the hazards are more complex-- birds pose a significant strike risk to the emerging commercial unmanned flight sector, and unprofessional and hostile use of drones challenge safe operation of piloted aircraft.

AviTac Solutions
Our goal is to turn Artificial Intelligence into Actionable Intelligence, combining deep learning, computer vision, and edge computing to identify threats and warn operators. Our team includes subject matter experts that range from bird behavior and avian ecologists, experienced BASH professionals, AI specialists, and actual pilots. Together, we have designed unique platforms leveraging powerful and accurate threat detection models.
ADAS-G
Avian Detection and Avoidance System-Ground (ADAS-G) is our ground-based, optical detection system of strike risk for airfields or other locations where incursions are undesired. The ADAS-G system provides a lower cost option for operators to identify threats compared to avian radar systems, although ADAS-G can add an additional layer of security in tandem with avian radars.
ADAS-A
Avian Detection and Avoidance System-Air (ADAS-A)
is our aerial mounted platform designed to identify strike
risk near Autonmous Aerial Vehicles (AAV) and provide
the on-board flight system with response options.
