Miniature avionics company Sagetech Corp. has unveiled a turnkey solution to track unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) ADS-B location broadcasts and iPads.
The company says the ADS-B Tracker Kit includes its new XPG-TR micro transponder, Clarity ADS-B receiver and an iPad with zero interface connections. Sagetech adds that the kit can be fully installed and operational within minutes.
The product, Sagetech reports, helps increase the safety of drone operations by allowing air traffic control, nearby aircraft and third-party personnel to track UAVs with standard commercial off-the-shelf equipment.
