Volarious VIGIL V1 airborne drone detection payload

Volarious, a Singapore-based drone technology company, will be exhibiting at AUVSI XPONENTIAL 2026 on May 12–14, 2026, in Detroit. At the event, the company will showcase its flagship drone tethering system, V-LINE PRO, demonstrating how it can extend drone flight time from mere minutes to multiple hours for continuous aerial operations.

In addition to V-LINE PRO, Volarious will debut its latest innovation, the VIGIL V1 airborne drone detection payload. As unmanned aerial operations continue to expand worldwide, maintaining situational awareness in increasingly congested low-altitude airspace has become mission-critical. VIGIL V1 is engineered to provide real-time awareness of nearby cooperative unmanned aircraft through Broadcast Remote ID (B-RID) and Drone ID detection.

Designed for seamless integration with the DJI Matrice 400, VIGIL V1 transforms a drone into a mobile aerial monitoring platform. Unlike conventional ground-based detection systems, VIGIL V1 operates directly in the air, enabling elevated positioning, broader detection coverage, and enhanced operational flexibility for applications such as large-scale event security, industrial site monitoring, infrastructure protection, and emergency response operations.

Visitors to Volarious at Booth #17028 will have the opportunity to experience firsthand how tethered drone systems and airborne drone detection technologies are reshaping the future of persistent aerial operations and airspace awareness.
