GALE Project Technologies Successfully Tests “Pinger” Micro Drone Detector with SAPD Law Enforcement and Federal Observers

Gale Project Technologies, Inc. has successfully completed live field testing of its ultra-compact drone detection device, Pinger, in collaboration with the San Antonio Police Department (SAPD), with participation from federal-level observers.

This milestone represents a major step forward in validating low-cost, scalable drone detection technology for public safety, infrastructure protection, and defense applications.

What is Pinger?

Pinger is a compact, cost-effective Remote ID drone detection device designed to identify, track, and log unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in real time.

Unlike traditional counter-UAS systems that rely on expensive radar, RF triangulation, or complex multi-sensor architectures, Pinger leverages the emerging Remote ID ecosystem to deliver:

• Real-time drone identification
• Flight telemetry capture
• Persistent drone data logging
• Lightweight, rapid deployment

All at a fraction of the cost of legacy drone detection systems. $249

Live Testing with SAPD and Federal Observers During controlled field operations with SAPD:

• Multiple drone flights were conducted in real-world conditions
• Pinger successfully detected and logged Remote ID signals
• System performance was validated for accuracy, consistency, and operational usability

Federal observers were present during testing, providing insight into real-world deployment potential across public safety and government use cases.

Key Results Testing demonstrated that Pinger can:
