Drone intrusion is the unauthorized entry of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) into restricted airspace, private property, or sensitive areas, often violating aviation laws or privacy rights.
They pose risks to national security, public safety, privacy, and critical infrastructure, potentially facilitating surveillance, smuggling, or even attacks.
Common technologies include radar, acoustic sensors, radio frequency (RF) scanners, and optical cameras, often integrated into comprehensive counter-drone systems.
Penalties vary by region but can include substantial fines, drone confiscation, and even imprisonment, especially for flights near airports or critical sites.
The legality of using anti-drone tech by private citizens varies; many jurisdictions restrict interference with aircraft, requiring professional or authorized use only.
