SkyWall100 is a handheld system that gives a mobile operator the ability to physically capture a drone in a specifically designed ‘drone entangling’ net. It uses compressed air to launch a projectile up to the drone after the operator has targeted it using the onboard SmartScope.

The SkyWall100 launcher can be used with a range of SkyWall projectiles.
The onboard SmartScope helps capture moving targets by locking on to the drone and adjusting the operators aim before programming the projectile prior to launch.

 
You would think we would learn not to call things 'sky....' but nooooooo, we have to tempt fate!

On a more serious note, I've wondered before if combatting rogue drones around airports and such is.... another drone! with a net.
I can imagine there would be some hijinks to be had with drones chasing other drones around the place. It will probably be made into a sport at some stage.
 
You mean this?


It's a start, now put guns on em, and nets! :2draw: I was more thinking of a Battlebots/Robot wars type of deal.

All kidding aside this is actually a pretty brilliant idea.
You not only get rid of the threat, such as it may be, but then you get all that intel from capturing it mostly intact. (y)

100m range is a little wimpy, but I guess they will improve that over time.
