A New India Milestone for ANRA Technologies and Drone Manufacturers: Drone Tracking
A New India Milestone for ANRA Technologies and Drone Manufacturers: Drone Tracking In order to address safety and security concerns of the Indian government, ANRA Technologies, in partnership with ideaForge and Asteria, carried out the first-ever flight test utilising new technology that allowed live tracking of drones via the internet.
Along with ideaForge and Asteria Aerospace, ANRA Technologies, a pioneer in integrated airspace, mission management, and delivery systems for uncrewed aircraft, reached a new milestone for drone tracking in India’s national airspace. The demonstrations showed the adaptability of the system by showcasing a small strap-on hardware module and a software plugin. Accessed by participating drones wirelessly connected to ANRA’s SMARTWAYZ Tracker Platform, these features allowed authorised users to see and track concurrent drone operations in Bangalore and the National Capital Region. Each drone flown by ideaForge, Asteria, and ANRA was tracked in real-time, with its locations shown on the SMARTWAYZ Tracker app. Only authorised individuals could observe the tracking, and drone operators had the choice to switch it on or off.

Only authorised individuals could access the tracking data, and drone pilots had the choice to turn it on or off.
Amit Ganjoo, the founder and CEO of ANRA Technologies, said, “Today, we advanced the drone sector for India by showcasing with our partners a solution that answers critical operational challenges for the government of India. “Our SMARTWAYZ Tracker platform is network-based, allowing authorised users to monitor live flight tracking of drones from anywhere in India.”
Small drones can be challenging to track using conventional techniques like radar, and not all drones are connected with a system that sends their information to a network where it is then shared. A new alternative is to use strap-on gear or a software plugin at the drone’s control station that periodically electronically shares the drone’s position and other relevant information. Today’s demonstration successfully demonstrated this capability in two distinct cities.
Concerning ANRA Technologies
For managers and operators of unmanned aircraft, ANRA Technologies provides global airspace management systems. For operations including Uncrewed Traffic Management (UTM)/U-space and Urban Air Mobility (UAM), ANRA provides sophisticated and modular traffic management software capabilities. ANRA provides MissionManager, an enterprise-class drone operations solution, for businesses in need, and DELIVERY, a delivery service, for businesses.
Regarding ideaForge
ideaForge is a UAV systems firm with a product-focused approach that creates drone solutions for a range of uses. Drones made by ideaForge are years ahead of those made by other equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in terms of performance, safety, reliability, and autonomy. IdeaForge strives to push the limits of UAV technology and promote its use in order to maximise our impact on improving productivity and security for our clients. IdeaForge was founded on a solid foundation of interdisciplinary engineering.
Concerning Asteria Aerospace
An unincorporated organisation called Asteria Aerospace is attempting to create strong rockets and create and construct spaceships that will one day travel to space. Our team strives to provide original solutions based on defying accepted design conventions in the aerospace sector. We don’t just work on the actual hardware for High Power rockets; we’ve also started to explore other areas of study, like design work on more complex systems that could be able to get into space, and in some cases, the early development of those same systems.
