< Back Simultaneous Detection, Tracking and Identification of Land and Aerial Targets Mar 28, 2022 PHOENIX, Ariz. – On March 18, 2022, PureTech successfully completed integration of short and long-range Counter UAS capabilities into its Autonomous Geospatial Border and Perimeter Protection C4ISR that addresses critical security threats, further demonstrating the system’s scalability and resiliency to enable all-domain command and control capabilities. “We strive to demonstrate our open architecture’s power to utilize information from every modality, this time delivering air domain awareness and enabling law enforcement agencies to monitor airspace for current and future UAS threats from nefarious actors to critical infrastructure, airports, and borders.,” says Ilia Rosenberg, Vice President of federal sector of PureTech Systems. At the testing range similar to a typical border operational environment, the PureActiv C4ISR was able to detect and track small UAS flying different evading trajectories within the range of deployed sensors that included 3D radars from SRC and Echodyne, long range EO/IR cameras from PVP, and a Whisper Hunter direction finder from SRC that detects various signals of interest in contested and congested spectrum environments. Simultaneously, using its long-established artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, PureActiv was able to autonomously detect, track, and identify people walking, thus providing increased situational awareness for the operators. In addition, dissemination of all relevant operational data to distributed Team Awareness Kit (TAK) units was successfully demonstrated throughout the demo. “This is another testament to our Autonomous PureActiv C4ISR system maturity and ability to connect legacy systems and new technologies to not only significantly extend the already long list of capabilities, but also do it within the framework of existing interfaces without increasing cognitive loads on the system operator and not requiring additional agents to control the system,” said Larry Bowe, president of PureTech Systems. The demonstration took place at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Advanced Training Center, running operationally realistic scenarios with small UAV simulating Red Force threats and PureTech engineers at the controls. The PureActiv software was hosted on a small form factor edge computer connected to the sensors, which were deployed outside the demo facility. PureTech considers these tests, conducted at no cost to the government, as a foundation for a broad scale Operational Test and Evaluation (OT&E) of PureActiv, in which the system can be evaluated on its operational performance.

< Back PureTech Announces Successful Integration OWL Mar 18, 2021 PHOENIX, Ariz. – PureTech Systems announced today the successful integration of the OWL GroundAware GA1360 2D digital multibeam forming radar system with the PureActiv Rapid-Deploy Autonomous Perimeter Surveillance System (R-DAPSS). R-DAPSS is equipped with PureTech's patented geospatial and AI boosted video analytics, PureActiv, which provides among the highest probability of detection while maintaining near-zero nuisance alarms for perimeter and wide-area protection. The easily relocatable trailer is equipped with radar, PTZ Cameras and PureActiv Auto-verification to eliminate nuisance alarms and perform auto-tracking, and deterrents such as loud hailers and strobe lights. In addition, the R-DAPSS is solar and backup generator powered, needing little to no fuel, depending on installation location, thus providing an environmentally friendly protection system that does not require ground penetration and has minimal impact on local wildlife. The GA1360 system from Observation Without Limits (OWL) combines advanced digital beamforming radar technology, classification intelligence, reconfigurability, and easy integration with other security systems (such as video management and access control systems) to bring 360 ̊ of real-time, all-weather situational awareness for the physical security of perimeters and other sensitive areas of critical sites. As the foundation for event-based layered security, GA1360 enables automated detection, tracking, deterrence, and response to intrusions within a 1 km radius of critical sites -- that’s up to 750 acres or 300 hectares covered by a single radar. Electric utility transmission substations, power generation plants, manufacturing facilities and airports are among the sites where GA1360 units are commonly deployed. Next week at the ISC West Conference in Las Vegas, PureTech and OWL will be showcasing their cooperation by displaying the newest R-DAPSS model, equipped with OWL’s GroundAware Radar. Other OWL radar models are also available on the R-DAPSS platform. Attendees of the ISC West conference that are interested in a cost-effective, rapid-deploy solution for perimeter security can visit PureTech at booth 13121 and OWL at booth 11099. “OWL’s customers use radar systems in all types of environments, including areas where mounting, power and network connectivity are unavailable,” says Mike Stokes, OWL president. “We are delighted to partner with PureTech to make OWL radars available on R-DAPSS. This versatile platform provides the relocatable infrastructure needed for easy deployment of OWL radars and other surveillance assets already integrated by PureTech.” “PureTech is pleased to be adding this impressive radar to the family of detection and tracking sensors supported by the R-DAPSS and PureActiv. Our objective is to always offer the best-fit perimeter protection solution to address our customer’s needs. Adding the GroundAware Radar family to the PureActiv R-DAPSS will enable us to address an ever-expanding set of rapid-deploy protection scenarios” said Larry Bowe, Jr., President of PureTech Systems.
