28 teams competed at the 2nd Law Enforcement Drone Cup
The Law Enforcement Scientific Council and the Digital Development Center of Széchenyi István University, in cooperation with Cloud for Intelligent Airplace Zrt., once again organized the Law Enforcement Drone Cup.
Innovation and professional showcases on the opening day
Held between 16–18 September 2025, the event’s first day welcomed around 400 professional attendees. Experts from the fields of law enforcement, healthcare, and public education had the opportunity to learn about the latest R&D and innovation achievements within the law enforcement sector through lectures and demonstrations.
Young people in the spotlight
A key aim of the program was career orientation: nearly 300 high school students could try themselves in various interactive programs such as a drone obstacle course, drone soccer, or an FPV simulator. The top three students with the highest scores received valuable prizes.
Two rounds, close competition
Podium results:
- 🥇 Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County Police Headquarters
- 🥈 Rapid Response Police, Regional Deployment Directorate, 15th Deployment Unit (Győr)
- 🥉 National Protective Service I.
The “Best Drone Pilot” special award was presented to a member of the National Protective Service by Dr. Sándor Pintér, Minister of the Interior.
Drone technology in an increasingly important role
This year’s event was once again hosted by the Police Training and Education Center’s Police Academy facility, which provided an ideal venue for tasks simulating real-life scenarios. The event demonstrated that drone technology plays an increasingly significant role not only in law enforcement and security but also in education and career orientation.
