The Innovation for Defence Excellence and Security (IDEaS) program’s “Sentinel shield: Wide-area detection for early warning against uncrewed aerial systems” challenge is seeking innovative ideas to help spot and track drones, including new designs that don’t rely on GPS or radio signals. As part of this challenge, IDEaS is piloting Procurement and Operationalization of Innovation and New Technology (POINT), a new acquisition framework to help get innovations into the hands of the Canadian Armed Forces. If you have a technology that can provide persistent, wide‑area detection and tracking of drones, we want to hear from you! Learn more about this challenge and apply now. Deadline: June 24, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. (EDT). https://lnkd.in/eauGG2AM #BOREALIS #DefenceInnovation
Très pertinent. Mais sur le terrain dans le Nord, la détection seule ne suffit pas. Sans énergie autonome, sans communication résiliente et sans intelligence locale, ces systèmes restent dépendants et vulnérables. La vraie question devient: comment créer des points capables de détecter, mais aussi de fonctionner et survivre de façon autonome dans ces environnements ? But on the ground in the North, detection alone isn’t enough. Without autonomous energy, resilient communications, and local intelligence, these systems remain dependent and vulnerable. The real question is: how do we build points that can detect — and still operate and survive on their own in these environments?
This is my app/software it is my original work I made it is called Sentinel Shield, I want to know who is publishing it and where did they get the audacity to take a portion and call it theirs?
hmm the POINT framework thing is pretty smart tbh... like finally something that might actually speed up getting new drone tech to the troops instead of the usual endless bureaucracy
We're looking for collaboration and joint venture opportunities on this one. Robson Inc. is a 25-year Indigenous-owned sovereign infrastructure company out of Vancouver. We provide secure compute, data hosting, and communications infrastructure built on Canadian soil under Canadian and Indigenous governance. If anyone working on detection solutions needs a sovereign infrastructure partner, happy to connect.
