LLC "Neurotech" develops solutions for detecting and neutralizing unmanned threats: the hardware-software system "Huntsman" and the software "Anti-Drone". Choose exactly what you need.
We offer two independent solutions for protection against drones. Choose the right one — a complete active defense system or a software drone detector.
An autonomous active defense system. It closes the "detection → tracking → engagement" loop for an aerial target without human involvement.
Who it is for: fuel and energy facilities, critical infrastructure, and military sites where active threat neutralization is required.
A software UAV detector based on convolutional neural networks. It detects and identifies drones in real time from the video feed of ordinary cameras.
Who it is for: facilities that need a software module for early detection and alerting — without a weapons component.
How the products are related: "Anti-Drone" Software is the detection "core" that is also used within APK "Huntsman". You can start with software-based detection and alerting and later expand the system into a complete active defense complex.
A hardware-software active defense system against unmanned aerial vehicles — a full cycle from detection to target engagement.
In recent years, fuel and energy facilities and critical infrastructure in Russia have been subject to systematic attacks using unmanned aerial vehicles. Traditional air defense and electronic warfare systems are often economically ineffective against the mass use of cheap UAVs.
The main difficulty of interception lies in the low visibility of drones, their high maneuverability, and their low cost. Engaging a maneuvering FPV drone with small arms is an extremely difficult task even for professional shooters, as confirmed by specialized tests.
In practice, engaging a drone with firearms even at close range is a serious challenge even for an experienced competitive shooter .

The low cost of attacking UAVs makes the use of traditional air defense systems economically unviable
Developed within the project "Anti-Drone Turret" at Skolkovo , the system closes the "detection-engagement" loop without human involvement
The APK "Huntsman" hardware-software system is an integrated solution capable of searching for, identifying, tracking, and neutralizing aerial threats in real time in fully automatic mode.
The system analyzes video feeds from surveillance cameras using computer vision algorithms based on neural network models trained to recognize a wide range of UAVs under various weather and lighting conditions.

Given the legal restrictions on the use of firearms in the civilian sector, we have developed a system for blinding the opto-electronic systems of UAVs using directed laser radiation.
Laser exposure of drone camera sensors causes their temporary or permanent blinding, which significantly impedes the operator or the UAV's autonomous guidance system, creating a critical time window for countermeasures.
Unlike kinetic engagement, the use of laser systems against UAVs is not restricted by the current legislation of the Russian Federation , which opens up the possibility of their widespread use to protect civilian critical infrastructure facilities.
No risk of damage to your own infrastructure or personnel
The speed of light ensures an immediate effect
Full compliance with the legislation of the Russian Federation
Cost-effective compared to traditional means
The turret prototype design was developed to overcome the limitations of PTZ-camera-based systems, to tune the PID coefficients of the servo motors, and to conduct full-scale field tests.
A standardized mount for various engagement means
APK "Huntsman" is equipped with a standard Weaver/Picatinny Rail mount, allowing the use of a wide range of standard and special weapons, as well as laser engagement systems.

The flexible architecture of APK "Huntsman" allows the system to be adapted to various application scenarios and protection to be scaled to facilities of any complexity
The architecture of APK "Huntsman" is built on a modular principle and provides seamless scaling of perimeter protection. Deployment is based on a standardized security module with an area of 1 km².
The central node of the system is the management server, which aggregates data streams from the corner video sensors. The sensors, with a field of view of 160° form zones of overlapping observation, eliminating "blind spots" and providing stereoscopic detection accuracy within the perimeter.
The outer active defense perimeter is formed by a network of 8 autonomous turrets, offset by 200 meters from the perimeter fence. When a UAV is detected, the server computes a ballistic solution and issues an interception command to the turrets closest to the target.
System softwareThe full cycle from the appearance of a target to its neutralization takes less than two seconds and runs without operator involvement.
The 160° video sensors register a moving object within the overlapping observation zone.
The neural network classifies the target and filters out false positives — birds, vehicles, and interference.
The server computes the lead and selects the turrets closest to the target's trajectory.
The selected turrets open fire on the target. Response time is less than 2 seconds.
Centralized management and AI analytics: processing sensor data and coordinating all turrets.
Overlapping observation with 4x coverage of the central zone — no blind spots.
All-round defense on distant approaches. The 1 km² module scales to a facility of any area.
A direct link between the server and the turrets ensures instant interception from the moment of detection.
The software component of the system is registered as the computer program "Huntsman. Recognition and Targeting" — the control core of APK "Huntsman".
"Huntsman. Recognition and Targeting" is the control software of the APK "Huntsman" hardware-software system. In fully automatic mode it provides detection and classification of unmanned aerial vehicles from a video feed, target tracking, lead computation, and the targeting of rotating turrets equipped with kinetic and laser engagement modules.
Developed by LLC "Neurotech", a resident of the Skolkovo Innovation Center. Unlike the "Anti-Drone" Software (detection and alerting only), the "Huntsman" Software closes the full "detection — tracking — engagement" loop for an aerial target without operator involvement.
Analysis of the video feed by a convolutional neural network, recognition of a wide range of UAVs under various weather and lighting conditions.
Target tracking, lead computation, and turret targeting via a servo drive system with sub-pixel positioning accuracy.
Control of kinetic firing platforms and the laser module for suppressing UAV optical systems.
A single APK server controls up to 8 turrets and 160° sector sensors, uniting them into a single protected loop.
A full cycle from detection to engagement without operator intervention. The response time from detection to opening fire is less than 2 seconds.
Works with CCTV cameras and existing perimeter control systems. A modular architecture tailored to the specific tasks of the facility.
