An Australian tech company called DroneShield develops technology to identify drones and then take them down. No shots are actually fired, but its drone detection system uses high-powered microphones to pick up the distinctive sounds that drones make, and then target them up to a kilometre away. Oleg Vornik of DroneShield is selling the technology to law enforcement agencies and the military.
