About Hornet Drones

Pre-launch · Alpha programme opening

We are building an autonomous aerial security system for private property: a quiet drone that patrols your perimeter on its own, sees in the dark, decides for itself what it is looking at, and returns to a weatherproof nest to charge.

What we are building

The HRN-01 system has four parts, and every one of them is designed and assembled in-house:

The aircraft — a compact quad with thermal, optical and low-light sensing on a stabilised head.
Quiet propulsion — toroidal rotors on damped mounts, so a patrol overhead is not something the neighbours hear.
On-board classification — the drone decides what it is looking at on the aircraft itself. No video leaves your property to make that call.
The nest — a sealed, heated dock that launches, recovers and recharges the aircraft without anyone touching it.

The exploded view and specification grid on the home page go into each of these in more detail.

Why

Fixed cameras watch one angle. Alarms tell you something already happened. We think the right tool for a private perimeter is something that goes and looks — before anyone reaches the door, and without waking the street to do it.

Where we are

We are pre-launch. The first alpha units go to a small group from the waitlist, and what those units teach us shapes the production system. If you want to be in that group, the form on the home page is the only way in.

⚠ Draft. Founders, team, location and company registration details are still to be added — see the notes in DEPLOY.md before publishing this page as final.
