We are proud to share that PERDIX was featured on WDR’s Aktuelle Stunde. Our Counter Drone System, jointly developed with technisch-mathematische studiengesellschaft mbH (tms), was presented at EUDEX 2026 in Essen.
The increasing use of small, low-cost attack drones is changing the requirements of modern Air Defense. Conventional air defense systems can be highly effective, but deploying expensive interceptors against comparatively inexpensive drones presents a significant economic challenge.
So how can low-flying attack drones be reliably detected, tracked, and intercepted at economically viable costs?
Our answer: the PERDIX Counter Drone System
PERDIX combines irisnet’s expertise in Artificial Intelligence and AI-based real-time detection with interceptor technology developed by tms. Together, these capabilities form a scalable Counter-UAS system for the lowest layer of air defense.
This joint CounterUAS development brings AI and Defense Technology together to address the growing challenge of low-flying attack drones.
Detect & Track
The PERDIX ground station uses irisnet’s real-time AI and advanced sensor technology to detect drones at close range and continuously track their movement.
Intercept
Once a threat is identified, the Smart Effector PX75 developed by tms enables the targeted kinetic interception of low-flying attack drones.
Designed for Cost Efficiency
PERDIX addresses one of the key challenges in modern Counter Drone defense: countering low-cost threats with an economically sustainable solution.
The goal is to provide a key component of a scalable, layered air defense architecture.
PERDIX at EUDEX 2026 in Essen
EUDEX gave us the opportunity to present our joint development to the defense industry, exchange ideas with experts, and showcase PERDIX in the context of today’s evolving counter-UAS challenges.
