AI-powered electro-optical sensing extends Ondas' multi-domain autonomy ecosystem, strengthening counter-UAS, surveillance, and early-warning capabilities
Dual-use capability for civil infrastructure protection, disaster response, and climate resilience markets
Insight's AI-driven modules are deployed with U.S. and Israeli defense agencies in real-world operations
Ondas' direct investment to accelerate product commercialization, serial production, and market expansion
BOSTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / October 29, 2025 / Ondas Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:ONDS) ("Ondas" or the "Company"), a leading provider of autonomous aerial and ground robot intelligence through its Ondas Autonomous Systems (OAS) business unit and private wireless solutions through Ondas Networks, today announced the acquisition of a controlling interest in Insight Intelligent Sensors, an Israeli developer of AI-driven electro-optical sensing systems.
Insight Intelligent Sensors designs and manufactures AI-powered electro-optical systems for real-time anomaly detection in complex environments. Its proprietary Smart Imaging Module (SIM) performs ultra-high-resolution edge processing to detect, classify, and track small drones, vehicles, people, and early signs of wildfires - even in GPS-denied or RF-contested environments. Systems from Insight Intelligent Sensors are operationally proven through programs with U.S. and Israeli defense and homeland security agencies.
"The addition of Insight Intelligent Sensors strengthens Ondas' ability to deliver advanced autonomy and sensing across multiple domains and positions the Company for new government and commercial programs in autonomous detection and environmental intelligence," said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas Holdings. "Their AI-based edge processing technology adds a new layer of perception and awareness to our aerial, ground, and counter-UAS platforms, enabling faster, more reliable decision-making for defense and homeland security missions. As part of OAS's expansive autonomous systems ecosystem, we believe Insight's SIM can achieve faster, more efficient production and commercialization."
"Insight Intelligent Sensors brings a new class of intelligent sensing capabilities into the Ondas ecosystem," said Oshri Lugassy, Co-CEO of Ondas Autonomous Systems. "By integrating their Smart Imaging Module across our Optimus, Iron Drone Raider, and Apeiro platforms, we can offer end-to-end autonomy - from detection and analysis to response - all in real time and across the most demanding operational environments."
This acquisition marks a key milestone in Ondas' broader strategy to build a unified, software-defined defense and security architecture that integrates sensing, autonomy, and communications across air, ground, and maritime domains. By incorporating Insight Intelligent Sensors into its global defense portfolio, Ondas strengthens its capability to deliver intelligent, autonomous, and connected solutions to U.S., NATO, and allied partners - addressing emerging needs in ISR, border security, critical infrastructure protection, and environmental resilience.
