The LSAD is in development to counter the growing use of small-scale unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or drones, for warfare purposes in conflict zones around the world. The urgency for an effective solution like the LSAD has led the global anti-drone market to expand rapidly, reaching a value of $1.9 billion in 2023 and expected to grow at a CAGR of 28% by 2030, as estimated by market analyst Grand View Research. Following the successful early testing of Fonon's LSAD prototype at LPC's testing facility in Orlando, the two companies are progressing further along the development pipeline, leveraging their expertise in laser-powered equipment.

Furthermore, Fonon Technologies is exploring opportunities with U.S. military decision-makers to assess the needs of various service branches and explore new partnerships and technologies. Fonon Technologies will handle the marketing and promotion of the LSAD technology upon its commercialization, targeting government, military and defense sectors, while LPC handles the manufacturing of the product.

"The capabilities of laser-powered anti-drone systems can give a considerable advantage to those defending against low-cost, simple drones used in today’s conflict zones," said Bryan Lee, Vice President of Fonon Technologies. "We are one of several companies around the globe who have announced or tested laser anti-drone systems. The LSAD offers an entirely new concept that is not yet being fielded globally."

Wayne Tupuola, CEO of Laser Photonics, added: "We are excited to continue on this joint development project with Fonon Technologies. The immediate need for a counter-drone solution presents LPC and Fonon Tech with a grand opportunity to deliver an essential defense system to U.S. forces."

LPC welcomes its community to explore the visual concept of the LSAD at our website.
