Hong Kong, 16 March 2026 – Two internationally patented innovative systems developed by Aerovision Technology Limited (Aerovision) – namely the “Intelligent Aeronautical GNSS Interference Detection & Monitoring System” and the “Intelligent Fire Hazard Detection System” – both won Gold Medals at the 51st International Exhibition of Inventions Geneva, held from 11 to 15 March 2026 in Geneva, Switzerland.
Founded in 1973 and co-organized by the Swiss Federal Government, the Canton and the City of Geneva, and the World Intellectual Property Organization, the International Exhibition of Inventions Geneva is one of the world’s longest-running and largest-scale invention exhibitions. This year’s edition brought together over 1,000 inventions from 35 countries and regions, with all award-winning entries selected by an international panel of expert judges through a rigorous assessment process. The two Gold Medals won by Aerovision attest to the company’s Research and Development (R&D) capabilities, gaining international recognition and reaffirming its innovative strengths in the field of global safety technology.
At the exhibition, Aerovision set up two dedicated booths, showcasing the two systems through physical demonstrations and interactive presentations to introduce their operating principles and application scenarios to international judges and visitors. The team conducted on-site system simulations, drawing keen interest and engagement from attendees.
Intelligent Aeronautical GNSS Interference Detection & Monitoring System – Establish Multi-level Safety Protection
The Gold Medal-winning “Intelligent Aeronautical GNSS Interference Detection & Monitoring System” was developed through collaboration between Aerovision and Civil Aviation Department . The system employs real-time analysis of relevant aviation data, using sophisticated algorithms to identify potential Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) interference in real-time manner that may affect flight safety and issues timely alerts, thereby complementing conventional ground-station-based interference monitoring technologies while achieving broader and more reliable monitoring coverage. The system serves as a prime example of local R&D achievements being successfully deployed in real-world applications.
Building on this foundation, Aerovision extended its technology to the low-altitude domain, developing a Sentry Drone System for Early Alert of GNSS Interference tailored for Hong Kong’s low-altitude environment, which was successfully demonstrated in August 2025 during the first phase of the Low-altitude Economy Regulatory Sandbox exercise in Hong Kong. By integrating high-altitude and low-altitude capabilities in GNSS monitoring into a “High-altitude + Low-altitude” (HA+LA) fusion architecture, the technology achieves seamless cross-altitude data integration, providing safe and reliable technical support for diverse scenarios, such as safety management for high-altitude and low-altitude aircraft and safeguarding critical infrastructure operations.
Intelligent Fire Hazard Detection System – Strengthening Multi-domain Safety and Supporting International Aviation Hub Development
The other Gold Medal-winning “Intelligent Fire Hazard Detection System” integrates artificial intelligence with multiple environmental sensors to automatically identify abnormal heat signatures and issue alerts before they develop into fires. The system is now in operation at the early baggage storage areas of the passenger terminal at Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) and Super Terminal 1 of Hong Kong Air Cargo Terminals Limited (HACTL), significantly enhancing risk management effectiveness for logistics and passenger facilities, thereby reinforcing Hong Kong’s position as a world-leading air cargo hub and international aviation centre. The system is continuously advancing its applications across multiple domains and scenarios, dedicated to building a comprehensive and reliable “sea-land-air” integrated safety environment.
Aerovision has been proactively bringing its innovative technologies to the global stage, gaining recognition from international authorities. Following apresentation of the above two systems at the ICAO Asia & Pacific CNS Subgroup Meeting in June 2025 to representatives from over 20 States/Administrations, the Intelligent Fire Hazard Detection System was promulgated to more than 190 member states worldwide through a paper for the 42nd ICAO Assembly in September 2025.
To date, Aerovision’s proprietary systems have attracted strong interest from operators and regulators in countries including Malaysia, Thailand, Qatar and Turkey etc, with ongoing discussions on the feasibility of localized adoption of the technology in those markets.
Ir Dr Angus Cheung, Chief Executive Officer of Aerovision, remarked, “From the ICAO Asia-Pacific meeting to the ICAO Assembly, and now to the Geneva Inventions Exhibition, our technology has consistently gained recognition on the international stage. Winning two Gold Medals this time marks an important milestone for our team’s years of dedication to innovative technologies. We are grateful for the continued support of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government Transport and Logistics Bureau and Civil Aviation Department, as well as our partners, which has enabled innovative concepts to be first deployed in Hong Kong. Looking ahead, Aerovision will continue to place technology innovation at the core of our efforts, enhance our system functionalities and expand into more application scenarios, allowing smart technology originating from Hong Kong to create greater value in aviation logistics and other safety fields globally.”
