Drone Detection Solutions for Spectator Sports

Sports Stadiums have had their share of drone sightings during game days, concerts, and other events hosted in the stadium. Currently, there are extensive measures carried out by security staff and risk assessment teams to ensure all physical perimeters around the sporting venue are protected. But as drone use increases, steps to secure the airspace against aerial drone threats also need to be taken.

Threats drones pose to stadiums:

Drones can carry and release a wide range of payloads such as a gun, an explosive or a chemical, with precision on unsuspecting crowds.
Drones can cause personal injury to fans and stadium property if they fall out of the sky due to technological errors or misuse from the pilot.
Drones can create crowd chaos with hundreds or thousands of people trying to vacate the venue at the same time.

With most sports aired live on TV and with social media at attendees’ fingertips, the world would be watching any catastrophe live on national TV or online with the posting and viral sharing of videos captured at the event. Open air sports venues are at a real risk from drone threats.
