Dumbo System

The Technology Behind the Solution

Acoustic drone detection is the future of counter-UAS: it delivers reliable results at a fraction of the cost of radar or RF systems. Dumbo brings this capability to the field with advanced multi-microphone arrays and proprietary acoustic software. It detects combustion drones at ranges beyond 5 km and electric drones at over 1 km. Our engine classifies the specific drone type, reduces false alarms, and provides accurate angle estimation—even in dense urban environments. Lightweight, rapidly deployable, and 10x more cost-effective than competing systems, Dumbo gives you real-time acoustic awareness you can trust. At its core, Dumbo is a 30×30 cm module that serves as a flexible foundation for multiple use cases. In the field, it can be carried by combatants for portable protection. Along borders, multiple modules can be networked to achieve accurate localization through triangulation. Mounted on vehicles, Dumbo integrates filtering algorithms to cancel engine noise and provide reliable detection on the move. This modular approach makes Dumbo adaptable to a wide range of defense and security scenarios.
