Wave Sciences -- Cold Outreach Targets

L3Harris launched a dedicated C-UxS initiative in 2025 consolidating counter-drone technologies. They already have acoustic processing software capabilities but lack a physics-based source separation engine like GLIMPSE. L3Harris is a prime system integrator that could embed GLIMPSE into multi-sensor C-UAS suites sold to DoD and NATO allies.

GLIMPSE provides a passive acoustic detection layer that complements L3Harris's EO/IR and electronic warfare sensors. Passive acoustic detection works where radar and RF fail (low-altitude, RF-silent drones). Offer a technology integration pilot for their C-UxS product line.

Dedrone is the leading commercial counter-drone detection platform, acquired by Axon in 2024. They focus on RF-based detection but lack acoustic detection capability. With the $500M FEMA C-UAS Grant Program funding deployments at airports and critical infrastructure for FIFA 2026, Dedrone needs sensor diversity.

GLIMPSE adds an acoustic detection modality that fills Dedrone's blind spot (RF-silent drones, GPS-denied environments). Propose an integration partnership where GLIMPSE becomes an optional sensor layer within Dedrone's platform, expanding their detection envelope without competing on RF.

LEVA is the primary professional association for forensic video and audio analysts in law enforcement. Callinan's endorsement or conference presentation slot would put Wave Sciences' Acoustical Focus product in front of every forensic examiner in North America. LEVA training programs could incorporate Wave Sciences tools.

Offer a demonstration or workshop at the next LEVA conference. Acoustical Focus directly serves LEVA's membership. The Dan Markel case (41 minutes vs. 15 seconds of usable audio) is a compelling case study for forensic examiners. Propose a joint training module on physics-based audio enhancement.

Amped Software is the market leader in forensic video/image enhancement used by law enforcement in 100+ countries. They already partner with Axon (TASER) for distribution. Amped covers video forensics; Wave Sciences covers audio forensics. These are complementary, not competing products. A partnership could create a complete multimedia forensics suite.

Propose an integration partnership where GLIMPSE-enhanced audio exports work natively with Amped FIVE workflows. Forensic examiners already use both audio and video evidence; bundling them simplifies procurement. Position as "Amped for eyes, Wave Sciences for ears."

DRONERESPONDERS runs NACON, the premier public safety drone conference in the U.S. (300+ attendees, law enforcement, fire, emergency management). Werner is the most connected person at the intersection of drones and public safety. He can introduce Wave Sciences to every agency buying C-UAS capabilities.

Wave Sciences' passive acoustic drone detection is directly relevant to public safety agencies that need to detect drones near prisons, stadiums, and government buildings. Offer a presentation or demonstration at NACON 2027. Frame GLIMPSE as giving first responders "ears" for drone threats alongside their existing "eyes."

Sonair builds ADAR (Acoustic Detection and Ranging) sensors for autonomous robots, giving them spatial awareness through sound. They raised $6M in 2025, won the LogiMAT Best Product Award 2026, and are deploying in logistics and automotive. GLIMPSE's acoustic source separation technology could significantly enhance Sonair's sensor capabilities for distinguishing specific sound sources in noisy industrial environments.

Propose a technology partnership where GLIMPSE's source separation algorithms augment Sonair's ADAR platform for more granular acoustic scene analysis. Combined, the two technologies could give robots not just spatial awareness of sound but the ability to isolate and identify specific sources. Relevant for manufacturing, logistics, and autonomous vehicle safety.

Cellebrite is the dominant digital forensics platform used by 6,900+ public safety agencies worldwide. They specialize in mobile device forensics and digital investigations. Audio evidence from phone recordings, body cameras, and surveillance systems is increasingly important in digital investigations. Cellebrite does not currently have native audio enhancement capabilities.

Propose an OEM integration where GLIMPSE-powered audio enhancement becomes a module within Cellebrite's investigative platform. Investigators already extract audio from devices using Cellebrite; adding enhancement and source separation makes the evidence immediately more useful without switching tools. Position as expanding Cellebrite's evidence processing capabilities.

HARMAN is the largest automotive audio company globally (JBL, Harman Kardon, AKG brands). They are investing heavily in AI-driven in-cabin audio, noise cancellation, and voice isolation for vehicles. GLIMPSE's ability to isolate a target speaker from background noise using minimal microphones is directly applicable to in-car voice commands, hands-free calling, and driver monitoring.

GLIMPSE solves the "cocktail party problem" that plagues every in-car voice assistant. Current solutions rely on beamforming with large microphone arrays; GLIMPSE does it with as few as two microphones using physics-based modeling. Propose a proof-of-concept for in-vehicle voice isolation that could reduce hardware costs while improving performance. Reference HARMAN's existing Qualcomm AI partnership as complementary infrastructure.

Separate from the Dedrone CEO target above, Alexander-Cooper specifically covers the EMEA/APAC region where Wave Sciences' NATO DIANA validation is most relevant. His OBE and defense background mean he understands NATO procurement and GCC defense markets. He is the gateway to Dedrone's international channel.

NATO DIANA validation gives GLIMPSE immediate credibility for European defense procurement. Propose acoustic detection integration specifically for Dedrone's NATO-aligned customer base. The GCC market (airports, oil infrastructure, mega-projects) is a shared opportunity. Position as expanding Dedrone's sensor suite for the international market.

While Callinan (Target 3) is the elected president, Lawrence is the full-time operational leader of LEVA responsible for training programs, conference logistics, vendor partnerships, and membership services. He controls which vendors get access to LEVA's network of forensic examiners. A training partnership with LEVA would create an institutional distribution channel for Acoustical Focus.

Propose that LEVA incorporate Wave Sciences' Acoustical Focus into its certification curriculum. Offer to sponsor or co-develop a training module on physics-based audio enhancement. This creates a captive audience of forensic examiners who learn on Wave Sciences tools, similar to how Amped Software became the standard through training partnerships.
