Martek Marine are pleased to announce the official appointment of Erik van Wilsum as Head of M.A.D.STM, the marine anti-drone system. Erik brings a wealth of insightful knowledge and expertise from a variety of roles ranging across the power electronics and counter UAS industries. His passion for the maritime industry coupled with his experience of product development sets him up for abundant success at Martek. Recent years have seen a massive advance in drone endurance, range and payload capacity whilst the price has also plummeted, leading to a proliferation of drones expected to reach 12million by 2020. M.A.D.STM detects and identifies commercial drones within a 5+km range, providing GPS positioning of both drone & pilot together with the drone’s speed & heading. Configurable and escalating stage alarms in real time allow the threat level to be assessed in good time.
