Overview

Built a cutting-edge airspace security solution that detects and tracks unauthorized drones in real-time. Using YOLOv5 and TensorFlow, I created an intelligent system that monitors airspace 24/7, automatically identifies drone threats, and provides security teams with actionable intelligence to protect critical infrastructure.

Dark backgrounds contrast with vibrant orange accents, immediately communicating the serious nature of airspace security while maintaining visual appeal. The layout introduces visitors to the system's core mission: protecting critical infrastructure from unauthorized aerial threats.

The system processes live video feeds through a YOLOv5 object detection model, identifying drones with high accuracy even in challenging conditions. Once detected, the tracking algorithm locks onto the target and predicts its trajectory.
