## Resource

Jake sits down with Logan Harris , founder and CEO of Spotter Global, to explore the rapidly evolving world of advanced radar technology, drone detection, and critical infrastructure security.From building homemade radios as a kid to leading one of the most innovative compact radar companies, Logan shares his journey into electrical engineering, defense technology, and entrepreneurship—including how the September 11 attacks reshaped his career and inspired him to develop solutions for national security. This episode dives deep into how radar works vs. LiDAR, breaking down complex concepts into simple terms while explaining why radar is essential for detecting threats in challenging environments like fog, dust, and low-altitude airspace. Logan also explains how small, portable radar systems are revolutionizing surveillance—capable of monitoring hundreds of acres and detecting even small drones with precision. A major focus is the modern drone threat landscape, including real-world insights from conflicts like Ukraine, where rapidly evolving drone technology—such as fiber-optic guided drones—is changing warfare and security strategies. The conversation highlights the growing risks of drone-based attacks, airspace disruptions, and public safety concerns, especially for law enforcement, firefighting operations, and large public events. Listeners will also learn how AI-powered radar and video systems are transforming detection by reducing false alarms, identifying threats (from drones to weapons), and enabling faster, smarter responses. Logan shares how customer-driven innovation shapes product development at Spotter Global, along with practical insights into entrepreneurship—including his productivity framework: Record, Remind, Report. Whether you're in emergency services,…
