New Delhi: OptiValue Tek has launched the Integrated Counter-UAV Defence System (ICUDS) platform engineered to detect, track, and neutralize advanced unmanned aerial threats.
The platform integrates a Bayesian multi-sensor fusion framework combining RF intelligence, acoustic detection, electro-optical surveillance, and AI-powered targeting.
This approach enables rapid and highly accurate threat detection, allowing the system to identify and engage aerial threats within three seconds while simultaneously tracking more than 30 targets in swarm scenarios.
The system architecture follows a “Five Senses Doctrine,” integrating multiple sensing and response layers to enhance situational awareness and engagement precision.
RF intelligence modules analyze drone communication signals using convolutional neural networks, while acoustic arrays detect motor harmonic signatures of RF-silent drones.
A panoramic electro-optical system provides continuous 360-degree visual and thermal monitoring, followed by precision optical tracking capable of delivering fire-control quality targeting for kinetic engagement.
Once a threat is identified, ICUDS can deploy a layered neutralization strategy that includes both soft-kill and hard-kill mechanisms.
Soft-kill capabilities include protocol-level deception, GPS spoofing, and broadband jamming, while hard-kill responses incorporate precision anti-drone interceptors designed to neutralize high-speed aerial threats.
The anti-drone system marks OptiValue Tek’s formal entry into the defence sector, further strengthening its position within India’s defence innovation ecosystem.
ICUDS addresses a critical gap in modern electronic warfare where autonomous, GPS-denied, and swarm-capable drones are increasingly able to evade traditional RF-based countermeasures.
The system utilizes a layered, multi-sensor fusion architecture designed to identify and intercept “dark drones” that operate without conventional radio transmissions.
