Project Q unveils its Unattended Ground Sensor (UGS) Mission Kit at EUROSATORY 2026

Paris (France), 15 June 2026 – The persistent surveillance of large areas poses significant challenges to existing systems. Radar systems can be rapidly detected and targeted due to their emissions. Fiber-optically controlled drones remain invisible to RF detection systems. Optical sensors reach their limits whenever lines of sight are obstructed.

Against this backdrop, Project Q is unveiling its Unattended Ground Sensor (UGS) Mission Kit for the first time at EUROSATORY 2026. The system provides passive real-time surveillance in large areas and is a commercially available, highly scalable solution consisting of a network of seismic-acoustic ground sensors. Together, these sensors form an invisible “tripwire” for the early AI-based detection and classification of drones, vehicles, and personnel. Multiple sensors are bundled into a portable, “Plug & Fight”-capable Mission Kit, enabling rapid and autonomous deployment, simple operation, and immediate operational readiness.

The solution has been specifically designed for use in contested and communications-constrained (GNSS-denied) environments. AI-based processing is performed directly on the sensor. Data is transmitted only when relevant detections occur, minimizing both bandwidth requirements and electromagnetic signature. Through Hydris, Project Q’s open-core integration and orchestration layer, the system can be seamlessly integrated into existing C2 and battle management systems. The UGSs are designed as attritable sensors. Project Q consistently builds on commercially available technologies – cost-efficient, scalable, and immediately operational.
