# Arlo Industries

> Arlo Industries builds a passive, decentralised aerial sensing mesh that tracks drones and missiles in real-time 3D without radar. Zero RF emissions means nothing to jam, nothing to detect, and nothing for anti-radiation weapons to home on. Backed by Y Combinator (P26), with offices in San Francisco and Kyiv.

Key facts:
- Product: Mentat, a passive optical sensing node deployed across rooftops and elevated infrastructure as a distributed mesh.
- Capability: live 3D position, velocity, and heading for every aerial target, from a single low-RCS drone to a full swarm, feeding directly into interceptors and effectors.
- Resilience: no single point of failure; coverage is maintained even when nodes are impacted. Man-portable, GNSS-denied capable, up to 10x cheaper than radar alternatives.
- Founder: Deo Arlo, who spent six years in Israel's research and high-tech ecosystem studying at the Technion; the system has been tested alongside Ukrainian forces on the frontlines and with operators across Europe and the USA.
