Accipiter Radar provides several carefully designed systems to meet specific surveillance requirements, all built on the Radar Intelligence Network™ (RIN) platform technology.
Accipiter ‘s Radar Intelligence Network (RIN) architecture ensures that systems can evolve and adapt to changing threats and needs.
The company’s unique approach to wide-area, real-time detection, tracking, post-processing, and display, combined with interactive analytics applied to historical target data, offers enhanced situational understanding and decision support.
The RIN platform allows any number of sensors to connect seamlessly over any TCP/IP network to the M3® Target Information System, which forms the core of all Accipiter systems. Since the RIN is designed to be compatible with various radar and sensor types, existing sensors can be integrated, and new ones can be selected as your mission requirements evolve.
Accipiter’s multi-sensor, multi-mission, and multi-user M3® Target Information System (TIS) offers comprehensive capabilities in target data processing, query, and retrieval, facilitating informed decision-making at both strategic and tactical levels.
The TIS organizes, fuses, manages, and distributes sensor data in geographic coordinates while supporting a suite of user applications known as Surveillance-to-Intelligence™ (S2I) tools, providing critical information to users.
Additionally, the TIS integrates with a Device Activation Processor (DAP) that can be radar-activated to trigger camera alignment and acoustic hailing based on identified target scenarios. Real-time replication technology (RTRT) mirrors the TIS to other locations for partner information sharing, data redundancy, and evidence protection.

The Potential of Accipiter’s RIN for Modern Surveillance Needs
In an increasingly complex and automated world, effective remote sensing, alerting, and decision support are crucial. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators conducting regular infrastructure inspections often need to fly Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) in a cost-efficient and routine manner.
Remote management is also critical for unmanned hydro-electric facilities to maintain public safety and security. Airports must monitor birds and unauthorized drones to ensure safe aircraft operations. Critical infrastructure like ports and waterside power plants requires awareness of vessel movements, operational compliance, and security risks.
Additionally, law enforcement agencies need to monitor extensive maritime, air, and land borders, conduct search and rescue missions, and respond to suspicious activities.
Each mission and application demands a variety of sensors, including radars, cameras, cooperative RF systems such as ADS-B and AIS, and RF listening devices for uncooperative targets.
A multi-sensor approach is often necessary since no single solution fits every need. Radar sensor technology must be tailored to specific environments (air, ground, or marine) and ranges (short, medium, or long).
In many cases, a combination of different manufacturers’ sensors is beneficial to achieve comprehensive awareness across all domains (ADA). To deliver consistent situational awareness and enable informed decision-making, these sensors must be effectively integrated.
For improved efficiency, breaking down organizational silos in business and government allows for better information sharing and optimal use of surveillance assets, avoiding unnecessary duplication of sensors and systems. As technology evolves and new sensing products emerge, users often face challenges when legacy systems are incompatible with new acquisitions.
