Not sure if it made the notables but a few breads back someone posted about a defensive system called Kraken also.
Its amazing how the programming works when we watch it like this in real time.
Here we go. Kraken is a sensing system that is scalable and packs into a container. It has some impressive capabilities and can link in to other electronic warfare systems.

If she tweeted it 5 times, I wonder if they are putting 5 of these around in strategic places to protect key assets.
"While the sensor and device payload is impressive and probably offers the most force protection per cubic foot compared to any other system, the key is the integration standard, fusion and automation which reduces troop to task and provides increased situational awareness – thus resulting in more reaction time for the warfighter," said Tom O'Neill, U.S. Integrated Base Defense Product director, Joint Project Manager Guardian.
"We've been able to positively identify targets before they got in range with weapons on our COP. They have tried to raid us multiple times, but we have been able to positively identify them and engage them before they got close. This is great for tracking the people coming in and out of your AO," said Pvt. James Benham, a forward observer who has been evaluating Kraken/COSFPS in a series of mock-combat exercises at a WSMR "Mountain Village" outpost.
"Kraken's six-kilometer continuous sweep can detect anything the size of a head – including rabbits, deer or birds," Benham said. "The system also has an option where you can emplace sensor overlays. If I get a hit on a sensor, I am able to instantly slew my cameras to that location.
