A new counter-drone platform from US Firm Wrap Technologies is pairing thermal polarimetry with artificial intelligence to detect threats early and coordinate responses from a single operating layer.
Called WrapShield, the tool uses TPiCore thermal-polarimetric multimodal sensing for its detection layer, with an architecture designed to incorporate additional sensing technologies over time.
Unlike conventional thermal imaging that primarily detects heat, thermal polarimetry also measures how infrared radiation is polarized, giving AI additional data to identify and classify potential threats.
