Asylon announces the launch of its new product: The Guardian Drone

Asylon has announced the launch of Guardian, an automated aerial security system designed to transform perimeter security for critical industries.

Guardian integrates drone technology, real-time situational awareness and Asylon’s battery swap system.

Asylon claims this offers users reliable and rapid response for incident management, routine patrols and monitoring that is fully FAA compliant.

Guardian has been developed to address the evolving needs of industries such as critical infrastructure, enterprise facilities, logistics centres and corporate campuses.

The new Guardian system is the most recent version of the DroneSentry system, DroneCore, which has successfully completed more than 45,000 missions for commercial customers.

“A new era in automated security”

Damon Henry, CEO, Asylon commented: “Guardian represents a new era in automated security. With the ability to provide aerial situational awareness and real-time incident response, Guardian is designed to be always ready, ensuring our clients can deploy aerial security solutions with unmatched efficiency.”

He added: “Built using the lessons learned flying over 45,000 aerial missions for our existing customers in real world environments, we believe this upgraded system will further redefine how industries approach security, combining affordability, flexibility and cutting-edge automation.”

Setting the Guardian apart from other automated systems

The Guardian system is offered as a fully managed Robot as a Service (RaaS) solution.

Asylon’s Robotic Security Operations Center (RSOC) provides FAA-certified pilots to handle all regulatory compliance, ensuring that the client does not need to staff, train or certify any of their existing workforce to operate the drone, giving a truly turnkey service.

The system’s patented battery swap technology ensures maximum uptime by keeping batteries fully charged and ready for deployment, minimising downtime during critical operations.

“Leveraging everything we have learned”

Brent McLaughlin, COO, Asylon expressed: “Guardian simplifies the FAA waiver process leveraging everything we have learned from our previous nine BVLOS waivers, making it easier for Asylon to gain the necessary approvals for clients for unmanned drone operations.”

He concluded: “Our advancements in precision landing and embedded multi-camera safety inspections make Guardian purpose-built for rapid scalability and safe deployment across the enterprise.”

Pairing Guardian with pre-existing Asylon products

The system can integrate with existing VMS, alarm platforms and Asylon’s ground-based security robot, DroneDog.

It ensures that organisations can enhance their security coverage without disrupting current operations.

Whether responding to alarms or performing routine patrols, Guardian is designed to provide an aerial perspective that complements traditional security measures.

Key features of Guardian:

• Automated Operations with Asylon’s proprietary DroneIQ software provides a seamless integration with ground solutions like DroneDog and existing VMS and alarm systems
• Patented Battery Swap Technology for effective incident response
• RSOC and FAA Compliance managed by Asylon ensures client operations are always staffed and meet all regulatory requirements
• Optimised for unmanned waivers to expedite FAA approvals and enable continuous 24 hours a day, seven days a week and 365 days a year operations
