“It’s a radio signal. There are a number of frequency bands that are used by all of the manufacturers,” explained Paul Taylor of Enterprise Control Systems, which developed the product along with Blighter Surveillance Systems and Chess Dynamics.
“We transmit into those frequencies in the direction of the UAV using a directional antenna,” he told the BBC.
“There’s quite a lot of radio power on to the UAV - so much so that it can only hear our Auds signal.”
The Auds operator can then choose to freeze the drone just for a short time - to convince its owner that there’s something wrong with it - or for a longer period, until its battery dies and it crashes.
