BCAS Air

BCAS Air

BCAS Air systems are advanced, autonomous solutions designed to detect and deter birds.

Completely safe for wildlife, they provide reliable bird deterrence across airports, wind farms, industrial sites, farms, warehouses, and open spaces.

Easy to deploy and operate, they keep critical areas free from bird interference 24/7, in all weather conditions. Protect your operations with smart, eco-friendly solutions trusted by businesses worldwide”.

BCAS = Bird Collision Avoidance System

 

 

Detection

Panoramic Thermal Imaging Camera

  • 180° panoramic field of view
  • Detects birds over 1300 meters away
  • Works in zero visibility
  • Detects multiple birds simultaneously

Deterrence

Acoustic system

  • Evokes Acoustic Startle Reflex (ASR)
  • Powerful emitter
  • Effective up to 400m (BCAS 9.0)   |   500m (BCAS 10.0)
  • Unique sound wave prevents habituation and harassment
  • Minimal noise — active only on detection
  • Focused sound directed at targeted birds
  • Runway clearance: manual emission 1 min before takeoff/landing

Data

Monitoring and Control Center

  • Modular web-based application
  • Video record of every detection
  • Remote control of all functions
  • Quick storage and data retrieval
  • Statistical database with detection logs
