A pioneering robotics firm based in Hyderabad, known as Grene Robotics, has introduced an innovative autonomous anti-drone system driven by artificial intelligence. This system, a groundbreaking development for India, has been designed to protect critical facilities like nuclear installations and oil rigs, and it possesses the capability to cover vast areas, potentially even entire cities, from a variety of drone threats.
Dubbed “Indrajaal,” this Autonomous Drone Defence Dome has gained international acclaim. Its standout feature is its remarkable coverage range of up to 4000 sq. km per unit, ensuring comprehensive protection against a wide array of drones, marking a significant advancement in drone defense technology.
What truly distinguishes Indrajaal is its origin as a “made in India” product. Developed entirely within India, by Indian talent and utilizing local resources, it serves as a testament to the nation’s burgeoning technological and defense capabilities. Uttrakhand Governor Lt Gen Gurmit Singh (Retd), the chief guest at the launch, commended the research and development team at Grene Robotics for their commendable innovation.
Kiran Raju, the founder of Grene Robotics, which was established 12 years ago, elaborated on Indrajaal’s design, likening it to modular LEGO blocks, incorporating 12 layers of technology all driven by artificial intelligence. The system offers 360-degree protection, capable of detecting, identifying, classifying, tracking, and neutralizing threats in real-time, with threat lifetimes as short as 30 seconds to a few minutes.
Indrajaal stands out as the world’s sole wide-area Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS), providing an integrated security solution to address mobile threats that static defense systems struggle to combat, as reported by NDTV. This technology has been developed by Grene Robotics, a cutting-edge deep-tech company specializing in AI-powered security solutions tailored for defense, enterprise, and government sectors.
