A drone detection system includes a plurality of base stations, which are distributed over a geographic area that includes a facility. Each base station is configured to emit radio signals that are monitored for reflection data, which is generated when the radio signals reflect from an object. A server is configured to process the reflection data to identify a drone in proximity to the facility. The processing is configured to process the reflection data over time to identify trajectory metrics for the identified drone. The trajectory metrics are configured to predict a path of the drone and determine if the drone constitutes a threat to the facility. An alert is processed by the server when the drone is determined to constitute a threat to the facility. A data center is configured to receive and store processed reflection data that has been processed by the server.

This invention provides for a multi-disciplinary energy harnessing mechanism for outfitting a vehicle. Accordingly, sub-systems for harnessing energy from various sources of renewable energy occurring in vicinity of/incidental to the vehicle, such as 5 solar, waste heat, miming water, flowing wind, mechanical impacts, heat from the road surface being traversed are integrated into a vehicle whereby the effective range of the vehicle is increased while reducing the frequency and amount of charging otherwise required from the electric grid.

A wind generator assembly for harnessing wind to charge batteries in electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles includes a housing that is mounted on a roof of a vehicle. The housing has a wind passage extending therethrough and wind passes through the wind passage when the vehicle is driven. A turbine is rotatably positioned in the housing. The turbine is positioned in the wind passage and the turbine is rotated by wind passing through the wind passage. A generator is mounted in the generator space and the generator is in mechanical communication with the turbine. Thus, the turbine rotates the generator when the turbine rotates thereby facilitating the generator to produce electrical current. The generator is electrically coupled to batteries in the vehicle to charge the batteries.
