COPTRZ to Detect Drones at British F1 Grand Prix

COPTRZ will deploy technology that obtains information about the model and serial numbers of drones, their course, speed, altitute, and even the people operating them, to detect and inform organisers of any unplanned flight activity.

Commenting on the contract, Steve Coulson, COPTRZ founder and managing director, said: "We look forward to working with the team at Silverstone and syncing our drone detection solution with their current security protocols".

Sports events and venues all over the world are increasingly countering the threat of drones or unmanned aerial vehicles ("UAV"), by investing in security countermeasures.
