DroneShield’s RfPatrol passive body-worn unmanned aerial vehicle detector has been certified as compliant by the European Commission Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive.
The means that the RfPatrol conforms to the requirements for ‘CE’ marking of the product to be sold within the European Economic Area.
Certification was obtained in response to user feedback for DroneShield, which claims that the system is receiving a high level of interest from both military and civilian customers.
‘RfPatrol is expected to appeal to a wide range of users due to its portable size, cost competitive pricing and passive nature,’ Oleg Vornik, CEO of DroneShield, said.
‘Non-military markets such as sports and public venues, commercial and VIP security and critical infrastructure are an important part of our business, and achieving the CE certification is an important part of European market adoption process.
‘We believe this is the world's first counter-drone product that has achieved CE compliance certification.’
