Chemical Industry - Jamming Unfriendly Drones

In my previous posts, I have described 3 potential benefits of drones in the chemical industry - Inspection, 3D-Modelling, Monitoring. 

But drones are invasive and intrusive. Even the most rudimentary chemical company is paranoid about security. All of them forbid photography expressly, and require some kind of permit to enter the premises. The Jubail industrial complex in Saudi Arabia is in a sterile zone with armed police guarding the outer perimeter and each plant site has two levels of fencing. Drones will make mockery of even this kind of security. Inspection and espionage are two sides of the same coin. When an evil eye inspects, it is espionage. So the chemical industry is rightly worried about the misuse and abuse of drones. At stake is intellectual property worth trillions of dollars. It also makes the industry very vulnerable to terrorist threats. Chemical companies will have to conjure something equally innovative to detect and jam unfriendly drones.

And now comes the news that such a cutting edge defence system has been developed and is being tested in a UK prison. The system will seize control of the drone once it crosses the "fence"
