The New York Mets have been working with Dedrone, a company that looks to protect venues from malicious drones and is providing technology to secure the airspace at Citi Field.

“That happens to be one mile from a major airport, which is LaGuardia Airport in New York,” Dedrone VP of marketing Pablo Estrada noted on a webinar last month. “And actually (the Mets’) challenge is aerial security of the stadium not only during baseball events, but they have high-profile events there such as music concerts and similar events. And they deployed the Dedrone solution not only with RF sensors, but also video cameras.
