Huntsville, Alabama Patent of the Year – 2024/2025
BlueHalo has been awarded the 2024/2025 Patent of the Year for Huntsville, Alabama; for their invention titled “System and apparatus for a high-power microwave sensor using an unmanned aerial vehicle” (U.S. Patent No. 12,227,292).
BlueHalo’s patented system integrates a high-power microwave (HPM) sensor into an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), offering a mobile platform capable of detecting and neutralizing electronic threats. This design addresses the growing need for agile defense mechanisms against emerging technologies.
The UAV features two distinct enclosures: one for low-voltage components like signal processors and navigation systems, and another for high-voltage elements such as power distribution modules. This separation minimizes electromagnetic interference, ensuring reliable performance during operations.
This technology enhances the ability to counteract electronic threats in various environments, from urban settings to remote areas. Its mobility allows for rapid deployment, providing a strategic advantage in electronic warfare scenarios.
