Senhive SENID+ Passive Drone Detection Sensor

Senhive is a Belgian company founded in 2019 in Hasselt to build mission-critical solutions combining sensing, edge computing and communication. It offers modular building blocks for airspace security and airspace management, from drone detection and Remote ID to ADS-B and Mode-S tracking, sized to each site's budget and threat level.

SENID+ is a passive RF sensor that detects signals from drones and their remote controls, identifies common commercial and DIY drones, locates the takeoff point and tracks the trajectory. Senhive states a range of up to 25 km in open terrain, shorter in dense RF environments. It comes as an Omni 360-degree or Sector directional model, is IP67 rated, draws about 30 W, weighs under 8 kg and can run within 10 minutes. Remote ID data separates cooperative drones from potential threats.

• Passive RF detection: picks up drone and remote control signals in ISM bands.
• Drone library: continuously updated for new models, firmware and protocols.
• Takeoff and trajectory: locates the launch point and tracks the flight path.
• Remote ID: identifies cooperative drones to separate them from threats.
• Omni and Sector models: 360-degree or directional coverage, fixed or mobile.
• Aircraft tracking: complementary ADS-B and Mode-S MLAT building blocks.

• Deep-sea ports in Vietnam deploying long-range passive sensors over berths and container yards.
• Telecom operators hosting drone sensors on masts to offer airspace monitoring to cities.
• Music festivals and international summits using mobile SENID+ units for temporary coverage.

• Long passive range of up to 25 km in open terrain covers large ports and airports with few sensors.
• Ten-minute setup and fixed or mobile versions suit both permanent sites and events.
• Remote ID identification reduces alarms caused by legitimate drone flights.
• Modular building blocks let buyers start with detection and add capabilities as budgets allow.

European countries are building national drone detection networks on telecom masts, and ports, festivals and summits now plan drone monitoring as standard. Southeast Asian airports and seaports facing more drone sightings can follow a similar model of shared passive sensors combined with Remote ID rules.

Founded in 2019; headquartered at Kempische Steenweg 293A, Hasselt, Belgium. Investors include LRM and IMEX iStart. Senhive reports customers among European and APAC airports, European seaports, police forces in Belgium, France and Germany, and events including the Olympic Games; SENID+ is designed and assembled in Belgium.
