Why apply AI software in defence – the changing war paradigm

Military forces eagerly integrate advanced techniques to facilitate battlefield performance and survivability. Recent programs are reporting sensible achievements.

The biggest military advantages among mentioned in the Columbia Science and Technology Law Review:

  • Force multiplication – fewer people are needed, each warfighter naturally becomes more effective
  • Casualty reduction – fewer humans under direct danger exposure 

And what’s most important, battlefield expansion by achieving critical objectives in previous off-limits zones.

As stated in the Unmanned Systems Roadmap 2007–2032, that also means transforming high-risk missions. Explosives disposal, long-duration surveillance, and other dangerous missions can efficiently be performed without endangering on-deployment soldiers.

Abto Software’s military software and hardware R&D services

Control theory

Control theory applications deployed to execute specific behaviors – standby, pursuit, patrol, mapping, inspection, search, rescue operations.

Each mode’s meticulously designed for responsiveness and stability under dynamic battlefield conditions.

Embedded programming

Custom firmware specifically tailored to constrained computing environments with sleek, reliable logic – already thought-out and optimized for restricted power consumption and system-level fault tolerance.

GPS- or EW-obstructed conditions? No problem.

Edge computing

Artificial intelligence, computer vision, and other study fields directly embedded onto low-power edge devices for automation and decision-making.

Get near-immediate object recognition, both static and dynamic target acquisition and tracking, and more.

User-centric interfaces

With advanced control interfaces, robotic operations become accessible to pilots no matter their experience, remaining intuitive even facing multi-unit coordination, threat response, and similar.

Control maintenance even under high-stress and high-risk scenarios – a critical tactical advantage in combat.

Electrical components

Each custom electrical component is designed to extend mission range and support high-endurance utilization. Each maintains peak performance in challenging, often hard-to-predict, and changing battlefield conditions.

Circuit boards

Circuit boards that deliver defense-grade precision by balancing compact design with resilience and efficiency. Low-profile integration with different UAV frames and interfacing with in-place onboard sensors and payloads.

& other domain-specific services we provide

Optical navigation

Specifically engineered for challenging, GNSS-denied environments, where operators don’t have GPS coverage. Mission planning, obstacle avoidance, landmark recognition, terrain interpretation – all under EW dampening and across long flights (up to 60 km).

Targeting precision

Identification, recognition, and tracking, even during high-speed pursuit and confronting electronic disruption. Payload autocalibration, simple interface, GNSS-connection independence, EW resistance – all that along with wind resistance (with distance up to 20 km).

Environmental monitoring

Persistent hover at altitudes ranging from 20 to 500 meters while maintaining aligned position and azimuth. Stabilized freeze-up without requiring manual adjustment, perfectly suited for remote post-strike analysis, surveillance operations, GNSS- & EW-obstructed missions, and other complex purposes.

Infrastructure inspection

Automatic inspection of bridges, roads, pipelines, command posts, supply routes, and other critical objects. Damage assessment, pre-mission reconnaissance, evacuation decision-making, equipment transportation – critical tasks done across hard-to-access locations. 

Why us

Why us

AI & CV innovation with purpose

With over a decade of implementing AI & CV techniques, we deliver mission-tailored modules and models. From supporting companion computers to advanced user interfaces and elaborate electrical components, our work doesn’t stop at the office space – it files directly into real-world operations requiring excellence.

  • UAV system optical navigation working without GNSS coverage
  • FPV drone last-mile guidance & delivery even under EW interference
  • Locked position and altitude to overcome weather stress
  • Target recognition and tracking to minimize manual adjustment

We build AI tech defense systems that resolve real challenges.

Domain expertise & compliance

For over 2 years, we have been partnering with manufacturers of drones and pioneering mission computers. Various ecosystems, regulatory compliance (NDAA, STANAG) and protocols (MSP, MAVLink), best practices – we build with expertise, not guesswork.

Work with a military defense company and integrate game-changing solutions to obtain critical advantage.

Best-in-class talent

We stack 20+ specialists who possess domain expertise, each fluent in both defense technology and coding. No matter the challenge, they’ll figure it out, that’s sure.

  • Control theory algorithms
  • Automatic payload calibration
  • Adaptive mission planning
  • Smart obstacle avoidance

We apply AI in defense systems to unlock new opportunities on battlefields.

Actively applied in combat

We design and integrate complementary modules being deployed in combat and delivering tactical advantage. Our mission isn’t passing controlled simulations but surviving GNSS-denied and EW-obstructed environments, as well as challenging weather conditions.
