Drones: friend and foe

Drones are being used for increasingly diverse applications. While they provide a useful service, they also pose a threat. We help businesses and public authorities develop more secure and efficient secure drone applications.

Drones are taking over the lower airspace

Drones fly quickly from place to place, delivering aerial shots. They can be used to monitor, optimise and maintain land and infrastructure, and for transporting, taking measurements, searching, sampling, etc. – the possibilities are endless. The flying robots are therefore an interesting proposition for a great many sectors. By developing a wide range of applications, we have gained relevant expertise in drone technology, regulation and implementation, which we would love to share with you.

Drone protection

How can you protect your infrastructure or major events from drone threats? Our drone detection and identification solution will inform you of any encroachment of the space above your property or event location.

Permanent protection

Fixed site surveillance

Drones often hover unnoticed above land, filming property and people, and can be misused to procure information. Drone Spotter monitors the lower airspace above your premises, airport, prison or entire city, enabling you to detect or prevent attacks.

The modular drone defence system is equipped with cameras, radar, RF sensors and artificial intelligence. The solutions start with the Light option, which locates drones by decoding their signals, through to the integration of multiple sensors for direction finding or multilateration using cameras and radars over large areas up to entire cities.

We tailor the solution to your individual protection needs. Large-scale drone detection and drone pilot localisation in cities can be set up as a multi-tenancy system and supplemented with specific defence technology.

Temporary monitoring

Protecting major events

Are you planning a big event with high-profile representatives from business and politics, who need to be protected from unwanted cameras? Or are you organising a large open-air festival and want to protect the copyrights of your artists? Since, whether by intention or by accident, not all drone pilots comply with applicable rules and regulations such as the Data Protection Act or the regulatory framework applicable to civil aviation, you need protection against non-cooperative drones.
We can quickly provide you with temporary perimeter protection.

Thanks to the use of Swisscom transmitter masts distributed throughout Switzerland, we can set up and dismantle a temporary drone defence system without major structural measures.

Drone operations

Leverage the speed and agility of drones for perimeter and infrastructure protection. Our drone network supports you with the efficient implementation of specific projects and gives you a clear picture of your infrastructure from different perspectives.

Perimeter protection

Drone-based surveillance

Geopolitical changes and new technologies may call for increased protection of critical infrastructure, production locations, public spaces, prisons, borders and police or military facilities.

The perimeter protection solution offered by Swisscom and partners uses robots on the ground and in the air for simple inspection tasks.
These robots, combined with alarm sensors, significantly improve the security of sensitive facilities and premises. Automated, drone-based surveillance allows you to reduce costs in connection with your defined security plan.

Infrastructure inspection

Digital twin

Continuous inspection of the infrastructure helps you to detect damage at an early stage and eliminate it quickly and cost effectively. Keep your infrastructure well maintained and ensure compliance with the legal requirements for monitoring critical infrastructure.

Using our network of drones, we will fly over your infrastructure at intervals chosen by you and produce detailed documentation to create a digital twin. Based on this, we use artificial intelligence to efficiently detect any significant changes to the infrastructure. Infrastructure protection can be used for individual buildings through to large infrastructures such as power lines or transmitter sites.
