"The AST utilize advanced computer vision algorithms to autonomously detect, identify, and track items of interest (IoI) as they transit through the towers field of view. The system can determine if an IoI is a human, animal, or vehicle without operator intervention."
"The planned deployment of an Anduril tower along a heavily used Orange County coastline 75 miles from the border demonstrates that the militarization of the border region is rapidly moving northwards and across the entire state."
Customs and Border Protection intends to install an Anduril Industries surveillance tower in San Clemente, California, to monitor coastal areas for migrant boats. The tower will be located 1.5 miles inland, providing extensive coverage over the city. The system uses advanced technology to autonomously detect and track objects, generating alerts for operators. Local residents and privacy advocates are concerned about the implications of this surveillance technology, prompting a town hall meeting to discuss potential risks and the broader trend of border militarization.
