Advanced Defense Technologies, Inc. (ADTI) Enters $11 Billion a Year Drone and UAV Market
ADTI to Deliver Sensors, Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), Detection, and Communications for Unmanned Drones and UAVs
Advanced Defense Technologies, Inc. announced today that the Company is designing the sensors, signals intelligence (SIGINT), detection, and communication systems for unmanned drones and UAVs. Global spending on drones is forecast to nearly double in the next decade, growing to $11.3 billion a year -- and suggesting a near-$95 billion market over the next 10 years, according to industry research firm Teal Group.
Global spending on payloads and subsystems for military and security purposes has jumped in recent years on the back of a surge in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) deployment. Behind the growing use of UAVs lies increasing eagerness on the part of governments worldwide to harness unprecedented intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, communication and attack capabilities provided by sensors and payloads carried by expendable aircraft.
R.S. Tahim, President and CEO of Advanced Defense Technologies, Inc. stated, "ADTI's technologies developed under several DOD SBIR programs have excellent potential for developing the next-generation systems to cater to the drone and UAV market. This area of military and homeland defense will continue to grow and ADTI is working to be at the forefront of this growing sector. ADTI is designing payloads and sensors that are capable of delivering more advanced imagery, stronger processing power, higher-capacity antenna systems, intensified electronic warfare (EW) capabilities and sharper intelligence."
About Advanced Defense Technologies Advanced Defense Technologies (ADTI) develops systems and technologies for the military defense and homeland security industry. The Company's system design technology has been developed under SBIR Programs with Government Agencies including NASA, DARPA, a prestigious defense contractor (Phillips Labs), and the US military (USAF, ARMY, NAVY and MDA).

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
