Integrated solution pairs DFSL's laser-based LADAR sensors with Zorronet's LYBA AI command-and-control platform to detect, visually verify and classify events at short range, without RF radar emissions
NETANYA, Israel, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Tessera Defense and Homeland Security Inc. (NYSE American: HLSQ) ("Tessera" or the "Company") today announced the commercial launch of its integrated perimeter security solution that combines LADAR (laser detection and ranging) sensors from DFSL with Zorronet's command-and-control platform, powered by its LYBA AI core. DFSL and Zorronet are independent subsidiaries of Tessera.
The modular solution integrates precision LADAR-based optical detection with commercially available day/night and thermal PTZ cameras, supported by AI analytics. It is designed for detection ranges of approximately 30, 60 and 100 meters, targeting sites that need accurate short-range detection and classification, particularly where RF-based radar is restricted, unsuitable or undesirable.
From Detection to Understanding
Conventional perimeter systems detect movement and raise an alert, leaving operators to interpret each event. Tessera's solution is designed to take the next steps automatically.
When a DFSL LADAR sensor detects an object, it passes the object's location to LYBA, which can automatically point a compatible PTZ camera at the target. LYBA then applies computer vision and AI analytics to verify, classify and analyze the event, giving operators context rather than a bare motion alert.
Depending on the AI models selected and the imagery available, the system can be configured to:
- Detect individuals approaching or crossing a restricted boundary
- Distinguish between a single person, a group, or a person accompanied by a dog
- Flag potentially visible weapons or suspicious objects carried by individuals
- Classify vehicles, animals and other objects
- Analyze movement patterns and flag potentially unusual behavior
- Track targets and trigger predefined responses based on event classification and risk level
The goal is to turn raw detection data into actionable operational intelligence that supports faster, better-informed security decisions.
An Open, Expandable AI Architecture
Rather than a fixed set of detection rules, LYBA offers a library of existing AI models and operational scenarios, built to grow as customer requirements evolve. Organizations can select relevant scenarios, integrate compatible third-party and open-source models, and develop or fine-tune models for specialized applications.
For example, a customer can configure the system not only to detect a person entering a restricted area, but also to determine whether that person is accompanied by an animal, is carrying a potentially suspicious object, or is exhibiting a predefined behavior of interest. New or adapted models are validated through a controlled integration process before they are deployed.
The solution supports secure on-premises and isolated (air-gapped) deployments, so approved AI capabilities can run without continuous internet connectivity. Software and model updates are delivered through controlled maintenance procedures, allowing the system to evolve without replacing the underlying sensing and imaging hardware. This approach is intended to meet the cybersecurity and operational requirements of sensitive facilities while providing long-term technological flexibility.
Short-Range Detection Without RF Radar Emissions
Unlike radar, which transmits radio-frequency energy, DFSL's LADAR uses laser-based optical sensing to detect and locate objects, so the detection process itself requires no RF radar transmissions. This can be an important advantage at facilities where radar emissions are restricted, where RF-sensitive equipment is present, or where operators want to minimize additional RF transmissions. Associated communications equipment can be configured with wired connectivity to meet applicable site restrictions.
Target applications include:
- Defense and military installations
- Critical infrastructure and energy facilities
- Industrial and logistics compounds
- Sensitive storage areas
- Transportation infrastructure
- High-security sites requiring localized perimeter protection
Modular, Camera-Agnostic Design
The solution is built around a camera-agnostic architecture that supports compatible, commercially available motorized PTZ cameras, including day/night and thermal models, rather than requiring proprietary imaging hardware from a single manufacturer.
DFSL's LADAR provides precise location and detection data, the camera provides visual observation and tracking, and LYBA fuses both into a single operational picture. Configurations can be tailored to coverage requirements, environmental conditions and applications, and new analytics and AI capabilities can be added over time without redesigning the detection infrastructure.
Part of Tessera's Integrated Security Strategy
"The challenge in modern security is no longer simply detecting movement. It is understanding what is happening, how significant it is, and how to respond," said Michael Oster, Chief Executive Officer of Tessera. "By combining DFSL's precision LADAR with Zorronet's AI capabilities, we are bringing complementary technologies together into a new generation of intelligent security solutions. What sets this approach apart is its flexibility: customers can select scenarios, add models and adapt the system as their requirements evolve, including in isolated and highly sensitive environments. This is Tessera's strategy in practice: turning advanced technologies into practical, scalable solutions for real-world security challenges."
