Drone Box
A Drone Box is an autonomous system that stores, deploys, recharges, and manages a drone without human intervention. This system allows drones to take off,complete missions, return, and recharge automatically. This technology serves security, surveillance, and intelligence (ISR) operations. It lowers the workload and helps law enforcement, military personnel, and critical infrastructure operators respond better.

The Main Benefits of a Drone Box
The Drone Box is an innovative solution designed to provide increased autonomy for surveillance operations through its fully automated deployment without human intervention. This tool is great for fast threat assessment. It lets you quickly check alerts by sending a drone to gather real-time images and data. Additionally, it enhances perimeter security by performing automated surveillance rounds, ensuring continuous and efficient monitoring, day and night. Drone Box solutions fall into two categories:
Tethered (like Khronos)
Continuous power supply, secure communications, and maximum endurance. They are ideal for persistent surveillance.
Untethered
More mobile but limited by battery life. Best suited for shorter missions such as search and rescue operations.
With Khronos, Elistair provides security forces and critical operators with a system designed to meet the most demanding missions.
A Multi-Purpose Technology
The Drone Box transforms surveillance and security missions across multiple sectors:
Defense and National Security
The Drone Box provides advanced capabilities for border protection and military base surveillance. With real-time threat detection and intelligence gathering, it enhances situational awareness and rapid response. Additionally, it ensures secure tactical communications, supporting military and security forces in high-stakes operations.
Law Enforcement and Public Safety
The Drone Box enhances law enforcement and public safety by providing real-time support for crowd monitoring and riot prevention. It plays a crucial role in emergency response and crisis management, enabling rapid assessment and intervention. Additionally, it strengthens crime prevention and urban surveillance, improving security and situational awareness in critical areas.
Critical Infrastructure Protection
The Drone Box is a powerful solution for critical infrastructure protection, ensuring continuous monitoring of power plants, ports, and refineries. It enhances security through intrusion detection and rapid threat assessment, allowing for quick response and mitigation of potential risks.
Event Security and Large Gatherings
The Drone Box enhances event security by providing real-time aerial supervision of stadiums, festivals, and demonstrations. It improves coordination of security teams and aids in incident prevention, ensuring a safer environment for large gatherings.
Industrial Inspection
It optimizes industrial inspections by enabling surveillance of pipelines, telecom towers, and warehouses. It enhances safety by reducing risks and improves operational efficiency, ensuring proactive maintenance and incident prevention.
Tethered Drone Box, designed for persistent missions
Elistair has developed Khronos, an advanced tethered Drone Box designed to provide continuous aerial surveillance. Unlike conventional systems that rely on battery power, Khronos uses a micro-tether, ensuring:
-
Continuous power supply to stay airborne for up to 24 hours without interruption.
-
Secure data transmission with interference-free communication.
-
Automated deployment, by reaching 60 meters in less than two minutes.
-
Weather-resistant design for operation in demanding environments.
-
Advanced Raptor camera with an 80x optical zoom and high-performance infrared vision for optimal detection.
-
Adapts to complex environments to work in areas without GNSS. It supports movements up to 30 km/h. It also has a radio-silent mode for discreet operations.
With the Khronos Drone Box, security forces have a reliable system. They can activate it instantly with the push of a button.
