Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has urged the federal government to enhance drone-tracking technology following a surge in reports of unmanned aircraft in parts of New York and New Jersey. Schumer has specifically called on the Department of Homeland Security to deploy advanced technology that can improve the identification and tracking of drones to their landing locations.
In a statement, Schumer emphasized the need for special drone-detection tech to be deployed across NY and NJ. He also mentioned his efforts to introduce a bill in the Senate that would equip local law enforcement with more tools for drone detection.
