Problem
Critical infrastructure, public venues, and disaster zones lack continuous, autonomous monitoring and rapid response capabilities against unauthorized drones, security breaches, and emergency incidents, leading to delayed detection, limited situational awareness, and increased risk to assets and public safety.
Solution
Nefeli Air delivers AI‑driven, end‑to‑end airspace security through three integrated service lines: autonomous surveillance, counter‑UAV defense, and rapid disaster‑response deployment. Autonomous “drone‑in‑a‑box” stations continuously patrol designated areas, processing video, thermal, LiDAR, and multispectral data on‑board to detect intrusions, anomalies, and threats without human pilots. The RID radar‑based counter‑UAV platform decodes remote‑identification signals, classifies drone make and model, tracks multiple targets in real time, and provides geofencing, threat scoring, and operator localization for swift neutralization. For emergencies, mobile autonomous drone units can be deployed within minutes to deliver real‑time aerial intelligence, thermal imaging, 3D mapping, and AI‑highlighted points of interest, supporting fire suppression, search‑and‑rescue, and infrastructure assessment. All data are streamed to a cloud‑based command center with live multi‑camera views, AI‑tagged events, and comprehensive incident logs, enabling operators to monitor, analyze, and act from any device.
Target Audience
Primary customers include operators of critical infrastructure (power plants, pipelines, data centers), airport and airfield managers, event organizers, government and military security agencies, and emergency response teams requiring autonomous aerial surveillance and counter‑UAV capabilities.
