The funding will be used to further develop and scale the company\u2019s AI-based technology for detecting explosive devices and other hidden threats on the battlefield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dropla Tech was founded in 2023 by four Ukrainians \u2014 Vyacheslav Shvaidak, Dmytro Zarubin, Maksym Tkachenko, and Illarion Karnaukh. Today, the 35-member team operates in Denmark and Ukraine, combining European technologies with Ukrainian wartime experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company has developed an innovation in video stream processing that enables the detection of explosive threats in real time without access to external servers. The system integrates with UAV types already in use by the Defence Forces, allowing drone operators to survey terrain for explosive threats on the fly \u2014 protecting soldiers\u2019 lives during entry and exit from positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Defender Media highlights the most important details from the company\u2019s press release and its founders\u2019 comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dropla Tech\u2019s products<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company\u2019s flagship product, BLUE EYES, is an autonomous AI-based system for detecting explosive devices trained on real battlefield data. It is designed to work in real time even in environments with lost connection or navigation and requires no external servers. This significantly increases the protection of unit movements and logistics routes that are at risk of remote mining or drone ambushes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"1080\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1920 \/ 1080;\" width=\"1920\" controls src=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/blue_eyes_video_no_fx-1-1.mp4\"><\/video><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">How Dropla Tech&#8217;s Blue Eyes system detects explosive objects in real time<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Co-founder and CEO of Dropla Tech, Viacheslav Shvaidak, explained to Defender Media that the BLUE EYES system consists of a hardware computing module as well as proprietary software. \u201cThe edge processor is available in two versions: one that can be carried in a bag, allowing any of the guys to conduct reconnaissance for mines when moving in or out of a position; and another that is mounted on a drone,\u201d Shvaidak said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the startup\u2019s CEO, the BLUE EYES system is compatible with a wide range of short-range reconnaissance UAVs: it can operate with any drone that provides a stable video stream of the required resolution. \u201cThe system is designed to be easily integrated into the \u2018drone zoo\u2019 currently in use by the military, since we need to add this capability across the frontline as quickly as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"887\" height=\"628\" src=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/r7zbx4k7kfgig6zqpw9n.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9212\" srcset=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/r7zbx4k7kfgig6zqpw9n.webp 887w, http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/r7zbx4k7kfgig6zqpw9n-300x212.webp 300w, http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/r7zbx4k7kfgig6zqpw9n-768x544.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 887px) 100vw, 887px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To develop the system, the team created a dedicated testing range and built Europe\u2019s largest dataset of explosive devices, making its <a href=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/en\/tags\/ai\/\">AI<\/a> training highly adapted to real battlefield conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to BLUE EYES, the company is developing DROPLA VISION \u2014 a multisensor mapping platform that integrates optical, multispectral, thermal, magnetometric, and LiDAR data for AI-driven explosive threat detection in humanitarian demining operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"1080\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1920 \/ 1080;\" width=\"1920\" controls src=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/dropla_vision_montage_4-1.mp4\"><\/video><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">DROPLA VISION multi-sensor mapping platform<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Key capabilities of DROPLA VISION include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Detecting hidden threats by fusing multiple sensor layers;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Distinguishing mines, explosive devices, background objects, and natural anomalies;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Continuously improving accuracy by learning from new missions;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Training on custom-built synthetic ranges combining real and simulated data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Investors and funding use<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The investment round was led by Maj Invest, one of Denmark\u2019s largest asset managers, together with EIFO, Denmark\u2019s state investment fund with a dedicated \u20ac550M program to support Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-align-left wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/en\/2025\/08\/maxon-raises-300k\/\"><strong>Read more<\/strong>: Ukrainian smart-air defence developer MaXon raises $300,000<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dropla Tech notes that its collaboration with the Ukrainian government\u2019s defence tech cluster <a href=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/en\/tags\/brave1\/\">Brave1<\/a> played a key role in securing investment and advancing the company\u2019s development.
