The Latest Updates, Perspectives and Stories From MatrixSpace
2 Major Military Competition Wins and Transforming Defense Technology
We're proud to have won both the DIU C-UAS Low-Cost Sensing challenge and the Army xTechCounter Strike competition. Innovation like ours is needed to modernize national security capabilities.
Introducing MatrixSpace Portable 360 Radar™: Rapid, Resilient Counter-Drone Detection Anywhere
Protecting airspace security for temporary operations—whether stadium events, public gatherings, expeditionary maneuvers, or sensitive activities in/near secure sites—has never been more urgent. Drone threats are increasing, and traditional radar systems simply aren’t built for the speed and flexibility these scenarios demand.
Open by Design: How Our Software Platform Enables Customer Ecosystems
Everything we build at MatrixSpace is designed for easy integration and extensibility. It allows us precise control our radar systems with precision, embed them with deep technology features, visualize data for users and orchestrate sensor interconnection. It also allows us to quickly integrate our systems with a broad ecosystem of other applications through open APIs.
The DIU C-UAS LCS Challenge: Winning the Drone War with Innovation
MatrixSpace was selected as one of 10 finalists for the DIU's Low-Cost Sensing challenge for counter drone detection, addressing the lack of affordable scalability in traditional defense sensor systems.
DroneSense & MatrixSpace: Situational Awareness to Unlock Critical Response
DroneSense customers can now seamlessly conduct remote operations with comprehensive airspace awareness in a common operating picture with the inclusion of MatrixSpace radar detection intelligence.
Radar, Aviation Radionavigation vs. Radiolocation—Why Your Use Case Matters
The usage of radar for guiding vehicles and protecting people/places is strictly regulated for safety and to ensure reliability across radio spectrums. Your use case dictates how to comply with rules for radionavigation and radiolocation.
8 Ways Combined Radar and Drone Solutions Can Improve Rail Safety and Security
Railyards and rail lines face significant challenges daily—from theft, vandalism, and costly derailments. Technology enables securing their perimeters more effectively while also improve asset inspection practices.
Advancing Air Mobility: The Skyway and MatrixSpace Partnership
We recently announced a joint venture with Skyway to advance the integration of intelligent air traffic management and uncrewed aircraft detection systems. Skyway develops vertiports and provides advanced solutions for vertiport traffic management and unmanned airspace planning. MatrixSpace provides outdoor sensor solutions leveraging radar technology for use in defense and commercial applications, which addresses this need. The companies’ partnership is intended to support several aspects of enabling practical advanced air mobility (AAM) initiatives in the United States.
The Urgent Need for Low Altitude Awareness in the National Airspace
The recent New Jersey drone panic has made it clear: people want to know what’s flying in low altitude airspace. Why can’t we provide the level of clarity demanded? What’s needed to make it happen?

Airspace Awareness Elevated: MatrixSpace’s New AI Platform and Fusion 360 Radar System
MatrixSpace has just done something many airspace awareness vendors promise, but rarely deliver. It turned radar from a point sensor into the centerpiece of a multi-sensor, AI-native system that scales from a single box on a tripod to a cloud-connected enterprise mesh. As the number of drone incursions, beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations increase and complex urban events increase, that evolution matters. It gives operators a practical way to see, understand and act on everything moving in their low-altitude airspace, without forcing them to rip and replace the systems on which they already rely.

MatrixSpace Fusion 360 Expands Advanced Drone Detection
Burlington, MA-based MatrixSpace has introduced the MatrixSpace Fusion 360, a new addition to its counter-drone portfolio integrating radar, optical, and RF/Remote ID sensors into a unified system for real-time airspace awareness. The new platform collates multisensor data at the point of detection, allowing operators to quickly verify and respond to aerial threats.

MatrixSpace launches Fusion 360, “affordable C-UAS sensor data integration system”
“Built as a fusion-native system, Fusion 360 correlates sensor data at the point of detection and tracking, reducing false alarms while improving identification of small, low-flying, and evasive drones in complex environments such as public events, critical infrastructure, and operational theaters. It also distinguishes hostile “dark drones” from compliant or friendly aircraft, providing clear threat relevance instead of noise. The result: faster decisions, fewer distractions, and better protection.”

MatrixSpace Expands Portable Airspace Awareness Offerings with Fusion 360
Fusion 360 delivers trusted counter-drone awareness by fusing radar, optical, and RF/Remote ID sensors into a single, authoritative airspace picture—so operators can confirm threats quickly and act with confidence.

MatrixSpace Upgrades Platform
MatrixSpace has undertaken a major update to its edge-to-cloud MatrixSpace AI software platform. The upgraded MatrixSpace AI Software Platform now supports multi-sensor, multi-drone detection in real time for counter UAS applications.
