Robin Radar Systems

Robin Radar Systems advanced radars and software systems take aviation safety to the next level by enabling the detection of birds and drone threats at airports around the world.

Robin started out as a small research project between the Dutch Research Institute for Applied Science (TNO) and the Royal Dutch Air Force in the 1980’s, with a goal to explore possibilities to prevent collisions between birds and planes.

Over the past four decades, the company has grown to be the global market leader in radar tracking technology classification of small objects and has been recognized as one of the most innovative SME companies in The Netherlands.

As a top innovator in the field, Robin Radar was a key contributor to the FlySafe initiative, initiated by the European Space Agency (ESA) and supported the ground-breaking development of software algorithms to process raw radar images from air defense radars to visualize bird intensity. Today, Robin Radar produces multiple state of the art radars which contribute to the safety of civil and military aviation, wind farms and support drone detection around the world.
