I found the article, it was from Fox News, but I just noticed now it looks like it's an opinion piece, so you are probably right about it being a myth...this is the quote from it:
First, all of our major airports at a minimum should employ a technology called Aeroscope. Aeroscope is a counter-drone system created by DJI, the largest manufacturer of consumer drones worldwide. The system gives law enforcement authorities the ability to track the location of any drone that is turned on or flying within a certain radius. It provides not only the drone’s location, but also its serial number, type, and direction of flight. It is already being employed by law enforcement at sporting events, public gatherings, and certain airports, but its adoption needs to be more widespread
As far as I am aware, that was a fishing piece put out by DJI and has not been implemented, but in any event is irrelevant, as the drones (?) at Gatwick were not DJI ones. The article is full of holes because it implies that this technology will work with all drones, and that is plain BS. |
