The system fuses data from multiple sensor types to detect, track, and classify UAV threats under complex and degraded conditions.
Autonomous Decision-Making
AI models continuously assess risk, context, and operational constraints to select appropriate response actions without manual intervention.
System Control & Integration
The architecture supports modular integration with existing infrastructure, command systems, and authorized neutralization mechanisms.
UAV Platforms & Aeronautical Engineering
Ground Systems & Command Infrastructure
Our technology is built around an autonomous AI decision layer that integrates sensors, evaluates aerial threats, and controls neutralization systems in real time.
Unlike purely software-focused approaches, LUMEN SHIELD develops UAVs as complete aeronautical platforms, covering structural design, materials, and aerodynamics.
Our core competencies include:
-
design of lightweight carbon composite frames optimized for mass, rigidity, and survivability,
-
aerodynamic optimization tailored to specific mission profiles,
-
payload-driven UAV design and integration,
-
development of modular UAV platforms for diverse operational scenarios.
UAV airframes are designed from the ground up to support autonomous missions and specialized functions.
Ground systems provide:
-
real-time monitoring of autonomous missions,
-
coordinated control of UAV groups,
-
integration with external command-and-control and airspace management systems,
-
secure communications, telemetry, and data exchange.
The LUMEN SHIELD ecosystem includes dedicated ground systems and command infrastructure enabling full operational control of autonomous UAV missions.
Ground infrastructure is treated as a core system component rather than a supporting interface.
Ground Systems & Command Infrastructure
Supported functional modules include:
LUMEN SHIELD is designed as a modular counter-UAS system supporting multiple UAV configurations within a single mission framework.
-
UAVs equipped with net-based interception systems for non-explosive target neutralization,
-
UAVs carrying directed energy or laser-based payloads,
-
reconnaissance UAVs for detection, classification, and tracking of aerial targets,
-
multi-UAV configurations with distributed roles between reconnaissance, interception, and engagement platforms.
All modules are integrated into a unified autonomous mission architecture and can operate independently or in coordinated formations.
International R&D Collaboration
Our systems are developed through coordinated R&D across multiple European countries, combining complementary expertise in autonomy, photonics, and AI governance.
