Remote ID Receivers
Pierce Aerospace delivers scalable, interoperable Remote ID Receivers designed to enhance airspace safety, security, and defense operations.
The company pioneered Remote ID with the US Government, including multiple SBIR Phase I - Phase III awards starting in 2018 with the USAF, DHS, and NASA; as well as additional FAA-sponsored efforts. Through SBIR, Pierce Aerospace’s Remote ID solutions are eligible for sole-source awards and have unlimited award ceilings across the US Government ecosystem.
Pierce Aerospace’s market-leading family of passive receivers is trusted by the US Government, public safety, airports, commercial businesses, corporate security teams, and consumers. There’s a receiver for every mission; receivers are turnkey-ready for third-party integration (UTM, C2, C-UAS, COP, etc.) and ready to serve as baseline infrastructure for system-of-systems solutions.
Pierce Aerospace’s strongest differentiator is in its architecture. This architecture is more closely related to Netflix than outdated aviation systems. It is scalable to synchronize hundreds of thousands of receivers that are monitoring millions of drones. No other system on the marketplace can orchestrate the squawks into a symphony of safety and security.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
Remote ID is a "digital license plate" technology for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). It serves as a fundamental building block for integrating drones into the National Airspace System (NAS) by providing accountability and awareness. The system transmits UAS identification and telemetry data during flight, enabling those with Remote ID receivers to identify the drone and its operator's location. This technology is essential for addressing airspace uncertainty and enabling safe advanced operations like BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight).

Pierce Aerospace is a premier developer of Remote Identification receivers and persistent airspace monitoring services and solutions. Pierce Aerospace provides an interoperable suite of receivers and data services designed to enhance the safety and security of low-altitude airspace for civil, public safety, and defense stakeholders. Pierce Aerospace technology is dual-use, offering "digital license plates" for drones and high-performance monitoring infrastructure for both enhancing safety and for ground-based security teams. Pierce Aerospace systems have been deployed at major events like the Super Bowl, World Cup, as well as at Core 30 airports, corporate offices, and at critical infrastructure locations throughout the United States. Even homeowners are deploying solar sensors to better understand airspace over their neighborhoods.

Remote ID receivers (sometimes called sensors) passively and persistently monitor the airspace for drones that are squawking Remote ID messages. These receivers play a crucial role in airspace safety and security by detecting, tracking, and identifying drones and their operators. Dedicated Remote ID receivers provide an affordable, fully legal means for anyone to monitor air traffic - very similar to ADS-B receivers that detect, track, and identify crewed aircraft.
-
Remote ID Modules are hardware modules that allow drones to broadcast their identification data in compliance with FAA regulations. The B1 Beacon is a self-contained, high-performance RID module with an 8-hour battery life, designed to retrofit existing fleets or integrate directly with OEMs. It is specifically engineered to operate at high speeds and without interfering with a drone's anti-collision sensors. The B1 is the first and only Remote ID module awarded to the DIU Blue UAS Framework, making it the gold standard for government and professional use. Many Blue UAS do not come with Remote ID built in - making the B1 a perfect companion for Blue UAS in training operations, public safety coordination, or other flight scenarios where a Blue UAS needs to comply with FAA regulations.

Pierce Aerospace solutions are available for commercial, consumer, and government customers. Products and services are most typically acquired via an approved vendor. For United States government entities, Pierce Aerospace has rapid, Remote ID sole-source procurement and unlimited award levels via SBIR Phase III authorities from previously awarded Phase I & Phase II SBIRs for Remote ID. Existing contract vehicles are also in place. For state governments, Pierce Aerospace works with its approved vendor network and has previously competed and been granted Remote ID award on multi-state vehicles with sole source eligibility across 48 states.

Unlike legacy aviation systems, Pierce Aerospace’s Flight Portal architecture is built like a modern streaming service, allowing for the simultaneous synchronization of hundreds of thousands of sensors monitoring millions of drones. This is the only architecture on the market designed to fit the needs of a scaled nationwide network that addresses numerous types of end users via robust role based access and control (RBAC). Pierce Aerospace's mature system-of-systems readiness allows the company to integrate with numerous third-party systems and major civilian or defense platforms like Honeywell’s SAMURAI and standard open source platforms like TAK/ATAK. Pierce Aerospace’s Remote ID receivers and modules are NDAA compliant, and the B1 Beacon is the only Blue UAS list approved Remote ID module. The company is well positioned in the United States government marketplace with SBIR Phase III authorities and additional federal only features that are unique to Pierce Aerospace’s offerings. This success at the federal market provides a trusted capability that’s ready to serve state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, commercial end users, and consumers. Pierce Aerospace offers a rare opportunity for the civilian market to affordably access robust capabilities equal to what’s in use with military and law enforcement agencies.
