SkySafe can disable and take over rogue drones in midair

SkySafe's app can track and locate drones. (image: SkySafe)

The number of drones occupying our skies continues to grow at an impressive clip. And that has raised some safety concerns at airports where drones can collide with jets (as one reportedly did near London’s Heathrow Airport just a couple of days ago) as well as near secure locations such as the White House (where a drone crashed last year).
A variety of solutions have been suggested to deal with drones, ranging from trained eagles to net cannons and even including anti-drone drones. But none of these solutions is particularly elegant, and they run the risk of causing an uncontrolled drone to plummet to the ground where bystanders could be hurt.

San Diego-based SkySafe says it has a better idea. The company — which according to The Verge scored a cool $3 million funding round today — has developed a system that can wirelessly identify and take control of drones in midair. The SkySafe app can safely land the drones or turn them off completely and let them fall to the ground.

SkySafe’s site is pretty simple at the moment, but it does offer a video of a drone operator flying a drone with a second that works the communication signal to the drone.
