Robin Radar Systems has partnered with counter-drone technology provider DroneShield to make its 3D C-UAS radar, IRIS, available for integration within DroneShield’s advanced aerial defence ecosystem.
A pioneer in the counter-drone sector, DroneShield provides smart systems that detect, track, identify, and mitigate unauthorized unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Taking an ecosystem-first approach, the company works with proven third-party sensor providers to enable operators to select the optimal sensing technology for their environment, threat profile, and defence objectives.
This partnership represents a natural alignment for Robin, as the company continues to innovate and engineer C-UAS radar systems designed for seamless integration and agile applications — with proven performance in real-world operations.
Marcel Verdonk, Chief Commercial Officer at Robin Radar Systems, stated:
“At Robin, we see ourselves as a new-generation radar company — fast, adaptive, and built for integration. Our technology is designed to deliver cutting-edge drone detection, providing 360° situational awareness, and integrate seamlessly into security architectures. We are pleased to partner with DroneShield to combine our market-leading IRIS 3D radar with their C-UAS platform, enabling smarter, layered airspace protection worldwide.”
Seamless Integration for Aerial Defence
Built to detect drone threats with a considerably low false alarm rate, IRIS delivers long-range, 3D tracking via micro-Doppler and deep-learning algorithms, with a deployment time of less than 15 minutes. As a seamless addition to aerial defence platforms of all sizes, the versatile radar features an interoperable API and can be easily mounted on buildings, tripods, and vehicles.
To integrate into DroneShield’s wider air defence ecosystem, IRIS will connect with its real-time command-and-control platform, DroneSentry-C2. This platform combines input from multiple sensors to create a consolidated operational picture, reducing ambiguity and enabling better-informed decision-making.
Angus Bean, Chief Product Officer at DroneShield, added:
“Operators need systems that adapt to their mission, not the other way around. By partnering with Robin Radar Systems and expanding our sensor marketplace, we give customers more freedom to design their airspace security architecture.”
The partnership highlights a shared goal: to secure the world’s skies through collaborative, reliable technologies that protect people and critical infrastructure globally. By integrating best-in-class drone detection systems with broader defence technologies, Robin Radar Systems is excited to continue setting the standard for aerial defence alongside its new partners at DroneShield.
