What if radar could not be shutdown? Traditional air-defense systems are effective but economically unsustainable when multi-thousand dollar drones can take out multi-million dollar radars. We're building a distributed network where losing a node doesn't mean losing coverage—delivering resilient airspace awareness that's built to last.
Traditional radar systems are powerful but vulnerable—single points of failure that become prime targets. In modern conflict, economic sustainability matters as much as tactical effectiveness.
One hit on a traditional radar creates a blind spot. These expensive systems are high-value targets that compromise entire defensive networks when destroyed.
Multi-million dollar radars being taken out by thousand-dollar drones creates an unsustainable cost asymmetry favoring attackers.
Centralized systems struggle to scale coverage areas or adapt to changing threats without significant infrastructure investment.
RAID replaces vulnerable centralized radar with a resilient network of distributed transmitters and receivers— like replacing one large lantern with many small LEDs that keep the room lit even when some fail.
Instead of one high-power radar, we deploy many low-cost transmitters and receivers across an area. Each transmitter broadcasts coded signals, and the distributed receivers pick up echoes from targets. This creates a bistatic and multistatic radar mesh where losing individual nodes doesn't compromise coverage.
Our coded waveforms enable secure, jam-resistant operation while maintaining data integrity. The system self-organizes, adapts to node loss, and scales efficiently—adding more nodes extends coverage without redesigning the network.
Mesh of low-cost transmitters and receivers replaces single high-value radars, eliminating single points of failure. Using mass-market telecom and smartphone electronics dramatically reduces costs.
Advanced signal coding ensures data integrity, resists jamming, and enables multiple nodes to operate simultaneously without interference. Maintains security in contested environments.
Separate transmitters and receivers create multiple viewing angles through bistatic and multistatic configurations, dramatically improving stealth target detection and overall system resilience.
RAID isn't just a radar—it's a sensing infrastructure platform. We provide coded, reliable positioning and sensing data that others can build upon. Think of us as the enabler: we handle the resilient sensing backbone so you can focus on mission-critical applications.
Whether you need persistent surveillance, navigation services in GPS-denied environments, drone traffic management, or real-time airspace data, RAID delivers the foundation. Our coded signals ensure data integrity even in contested environments, giving your systems the reliable inputs they need to operate effectively.
From defense to critical infrastructure protection, RAID enables resilient sensing across diverse operational contexts.
Resilient air defense coverage in contested environments, continuous monitoring of borders, forward operating bases, and military installations with layered redundancy. No single-point failures even under targeted strikes.
Reliable perimeter sensing and air surveillance for power plants, airports, refineries, ports, and other high-value sites requiring persistent threat detection and scalable coverage.
GPS-denied operations, local positioning systems, drone traffic management, and navigation services for areas where satellite systems are unavailable, jammed, or compromised.

RAID has been recognized at the European level for its innovative approach to distributed sensing and air defense.
After winning the EUDIS Defence Hackathon in Lisbon, RAID achieved 2nd place in the European competition, competing against winning teams from 8 countries (Italy, Germany, Spain, Netherlands, Romania, Czech Republic, Poland, and Portugal) representing 471 participants and 129 innovations.
"Our second place at the European level has enormous impact. It gave us motivation and, above all, reinforced our belief that our project has real potential to grow. This recognition shows we're on the right path and that we can aim for even greater objectives within the European defense innovation ecosystem." — João Lopes, RAID Team
