NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage : The threats confronting law enforcement, military commands and critical infrastructure operators have crossed a threshold. They can no longer be addressed by adding personnel or deploying faster versions of existing equipment. Commercial drones that once required nation-state budgets can now be purchased off a consumer shelf for under $500 and are transforming the public safety landscape. Criminal organizations deploy the devices against border law enforcement, correctional facilities report drone-delivered contraband as a routine operational problem, and Langley Air Force Base, among the most secure military installations in the United States, was forced to halt flight operations by repeated drone incursions for which no adequate nonlethal response protocol existed. The safety-response infrastructure the world was built on is no longer adequate for the threat environment it faces. That gap is the defining public-safety challenge of this decade.

Wrap Technologies (NASDAQ: WRAP) announced its featured placement in a NetworkNewsWire editorial examining the growing need for autonomous public safety technologies to address evolving drone threats and critical infrastructure security challenges. The editorial highlights the company’s WrapShield platform and its exclusive U.S. and NATO rights to Frenel Imaging’s TPiCore(R) thermal-polarimetric sensing technology, which is designed to detect RF-silent drones that conventional radio frequency-based systems cannot identify.

Wrap Technologies (NASDAQ: WRAP) launched WrapShield, an autonomous defense and public safety platform designed to connect threat detection, AI-assisted decision support and response technologies into a unified operating architecture. The company said the platform is intended to help government agencies integrate existing and future sensors, artificial intelligence capabilities and response technologies across defense, public safety, homeland security, critical infrastructure and border security applications, with its initial focus on counter-unmanned aircraft systems.
