[NEWS] TBT to Showcase Integrated Anti-Drone System at SEECAT 2026

  Integrated Technologies Covering AI-Based Detection, Identification, Tracking, Soft-Kill, and Hard-Kill Countermeasures TBT Co., Ltd. will showcase its integrated anti-drone system at the Counter-Terrorism Special Equipment Exhibition 2026 (SEECAT'26), to be held at Tokyo Big Sight, Japan, from Wednesday, September 30 to Friday, October 2, 2026. Following its announcement in August regarding participation in SEECAT 2026, TBT will present a mobile anti-drone platform integrating its EO/IR cameras with radar, RF scanners, jammers, and other equipment. The company will also introduce its AI-based target identification and tracking technologies, along with both soft-kill and hard-kill countermeasure solutions.  Integrated Anti-Drone System from Detection to Response An anti-drone system is designed to detect aerial drone threats using radar and RF scanners, identify and track targets using EO/IR cameras, and apply appropriate countermeasures depending on the situation. TBT’s mobile anti-drone platform integrates radar, EO/IR cameras, RF scanners, jammers, and other systems onto a vehicle, enabling rapid response to drone threats in various environments, including urban and densely populated areas. By applying AI technology, the system can distinguish drones from birds and other similar airborne objects, while rapidly identifying and tracking detected targets. It also supports real-time situational assessment, equipment control, automatic threat-level classification, and integrated command and monitoring functions. The vehicle configuration and integrated equipment can also be customized according to operational environments and customer requirements.  EO/IR-Based Target Identification and Tracking TBT’s EO/IR camera serves as a key component of the anti-drone system, providing visual confirmation, identification, and tracking of detected targets. When integrated with radar and RF scanners, the EO/IR system can identify and track detected targets in real time. On TBT’s mobile platform, the EO/IR camera is configured to detect targets at distances of up to 2 km. Through this integrated approach, TBT provides a comprehensive surveillance and response system covering the entire process from detection and identification to tracking and countermeasures.  Countermeasure Technologies Covering Both Soft-Kill and Hard-Kill Drone countermeasures can generally be divided into soft-kill, which disrupts drone operations through radio-frequency interference, and hard-kill, which physically neutralizes the target. TBT’s mobile anti-drone platform can respond to drone threats using jamming systems and other soft-kill technologies. Its hard-kill solution identifies targets using detection radar and EO/IR imaging systems before deploying an interceptor drone to physically neutralize the threat. In particular, against threats such as one-way attack drones and low-altitude penetrating drones, which may be difficult to counter using conventional soft-kill methods, an AI-based infrared (IR) seeker can guide an interceptor to the target and neutralize it through direct impact.  Through its participation in SEECAT 2026, TBT plans to demonstrate its integrated anti-drone technologies covering the entire process from detection to response, with a particular focus on its EO/IR-based target identification and tracking capabilities. TBT will continue expanding its presence in the global security and critical infrastructure protection markets, including Japan.  Exhibition InformationExhibition: Counter-Terrorism Special Equipment Exhibition 2026 (SEECAT'26)Dates: September 30 (Wed.) – October 2 (Fri.), 2026Venue: Tokyo Big Sight, South Exhibition Hall, JapanBooth: 4H-35Exhibits: Anti-Drone System – Radar, RF Scanner, EO/IR Tracking Camera, and Jammer  

[NEWS] The Present and Future of Unmanned Perimeter Security Systems Driven by AI, IoT, and Drones

 Amid major demographic shifts and a declining pool of military personnel, unmanned perimeter security systems integrating AI, IoT, and drone technologies are emerging as a key paradigm in both physical security and defense surveillance.Based on a report by the National Information Society Agency (NIA), this article explores the latest trends and market outlook for unmanned perimeter security technologies, while highlighting the technological direction that TBT Inc. is pursuing for the future.Why Unmanned Perimeter Security Is Becoming Essential• Rapid Decline in Available ManpowerSouth Korea’s working-age population is projected to decrease significantly from 36.74 million in 2022 to 16.58 million by 2072. The defense sector is facing a similar challenge, with the number of 20-year-old males eligible for military service expected to decline from approximately 236,000 in 2025 to 127,000 by 2045. This demographic shift is accelerating the need to transition from manpower-intensive surveillance operations toward automated and unmanned security systems.• Overcoming the Limitations of Conventional Surveillance SystemsTraditional sensor-based perimeter security systems have recorded false alarm rates of up to 80%, often triggered by extreme weather conditions, foreign objects, or animals. To overcome these limitations, AI-powered video analytics and advanced object identification technologies are becoming increasingly essential for reliable and efficient perimeter surveillance.Physical Security Market Outlook and TBT’s StrategySupported by government initiatives promoting next-generation growth industries, South Korea’s physical security market is projected to expand from KRW 10.5 trillion in 2022 to approximately KRW 20 trillion by 2027.The global physical security market is also expected to maintain strong growth, with an annual growth rate of up to 8.7%, and is projected to exceed USD 200 billion after 2030.In response to these rapidly evolving market needs, TBT Inc. continues to advance its AI-based video analytics solutions, multi-sensor fusion technologies, and intelligent integrated surveillance platforms.Building on its technical expertise and experience in military smart perimeter surveillance systems and the protection of critical public infrastructure, TBT aims to introduce the next generation of unmanned perimeter security solutions significantly reducing false alarms while maximizing detection and surveillance accuracy.
