Aerîal Technologies Inc.
$75,000.00
Non-invasive intrusion surveillance Defence Market Needs Validation
FY 2025-26 · 2026-03-30
Summary
This project prepares a Canadian-developed passive indoor sensing technology for defence and dual-use applications. The system detects presence and activity inside buildings using wireless signals without cameras or wearables, enabling privacy-preserving monitoring in temporary or sensitive environments. Activities include analysis of defence operational requirements, assessment of technical gaps, and development of a validation and adoption roadmap. The project reduces technical and commercialization risk and supports Canadian participation in emerging security and safety technology sectors
