Arlo Industries
ActivePassive aerial sensing mesh to track drones and missiles
About
Arlo Industries is building a network of sensors that precisely tracks stealthy drones and aerial threats better than radars. This capability does not exist yet because traditional radars are built on past war doctrines designed to protect single, centralised assets. Modern warfare, however, demands wide-area, persistent coverage that is both passive and economically scalable. By utilising a mesh architecture, Arlo Industries unlocks unprecedented asymmetric economics. The network is fundamentally built to scale: the cost of adding sensors grows linearly, but the tracking accuracy increases exponentially, delivering highly resilient, persistent coverage for a fraction of the cost of legacy systems. Deo founded Arlo Industries after spending over 6 years in the Israeli defence ecosystem, where he lived through multiple conflicts and experienced the Iron Dome and other systems in action against ICBMs and the infamous Shahed drones. Learning exactly how these defence systems could be improved after a Shahed exploded close to his apartment, he built Arlo Industries around the core philosophy that conflict should be concise & precise. The people behind Arlo1 includes a PhD in drones and autonomy and military experts. Arlo Industries has actively showcased this technology directly to Ukrainian militaries on the frontlines, as well as to operators across Europe and the USA.
Founders · 1
Deo is the Founder and CEO of Arlo Industries. He studied Mechanical Engineering at Technion Israel (birthplace of the Iron Dome) and lived there for over 6 years under multiple wars. As a Robotics Researcher at Technion, he developed and patented a novel robotic invention that spun out into a venture-backed company. Before Arlo Industries, he was the Co-founder and CTO of Makrverse, a funded platform helping engineers own and commercialise their inventions.
Launch
We build distributed passive sensor networks that track aerial threats in 3D without emitting, replacing costly radars with a scalable & accurate mesh
Arlo Industries builds a passive, distributed sensing network that tracks aerial objects in 3D without emitting, using many low-cost nodes to replace traditional active radars. The launch presents Mentat as the sensing layer for frontline defense, enabling scalable, non-emitting drone and threat detection for military operators and C-UAS systems.
