🦇 About Batear

Batear is an open-source research project dedicated to creating affordable, decentralized drone detection networks. By leveraging ESP32-S3 hardware and optimized FFT algorithms, we provide a "wired" defense solution that remains stable in high-interference environments.

🇺🇦 Why it matters

Current early warning systems can be expensive or easily jammed. Batear focuses on:

  • Low-Cost: Built on sub-$50 hardware.
  • Wired Reliability: Using PoE (Power over Ethernet) to bypass RF jamming.
  • Field Verified: We partner directly with Ukrainian telematics experts to ensure our tech works where it's needed most.

🛠️ Your Support

Your sponsorship directly funds:

  1. Hardware R&D: Procuring sensors (ICS43434) and dev-boards for iterative testing.
  2. Field Deployment: Supporting our "Digital-First" initiative to get firmware and wiring guides into the hands of local defenders in Ukraine.
  3. Open Standards: Keeping our research transparent, audited, and open for everyone.
