FPV drone environmental monitoring

AI modules for dependable UAV & FPV drone environmental monitoring on battlefields
Read terrain, protect troops

No place for operational blind spots

In modern warfare conditions, heavily contested environments outpace manual assessment:

  • GNSS denial & interference – GNSS disruptions can break the navigation and cause mission abortion
  • Complex terrain & occlusion – dense foliage can mask potential hazard and conceal enemy activity
  • Visual obstruction – smoke, dust, fog, wind, and other visual obscurants might delay mission launch
  • Enemy deception – enemies exploit texture and pattern ambiguity to hide their activity

These factors might force the choice between exposing your soldiers to danger or aborting mission execution – a tradeoff you would not want to make.

Environmental monitoring: smarter eyes, safer moves

The solution: a module for autonomous optical navigation and hover that works even without GNSS coverage.

Environmental monitoring with drones: key features we provide

Advanced control

Better optimized PID controllers to enable platform-specific calibration and offset payload changes.

Multi-firmware compatibility

Betaflight & ArduPilot integration to enable platform-universal operation and maintain faultless reliability.

Angle stabilization

A custom gimbal system to stabilize visual streams by compensating for tilt and rotation during flights.

Altitude management

A custom estimation algorithm to prevent visual drifts and maintain stable hover even facing wind bursts.

Real-time performance

Software optimization and multithreading for responsive, stable behavior during complex, high-speed flights. 

A minimal sensor dependence

Computer vision to extract special features from streams, thus enhancing data accuracy.

Weather-adaptive robustness

Image preprocessing and adaptive PID corrections to maintain target visibility even beyond sterile conditions.

Feature matching

Descriptor selection and tuned keypoint detection to ensure accurate location in visually complex conditions.

Environmental monitoring and surveillance: key applications

Environmental baselining

GNSS-independent routings to build long-term baselines and forecast concealment windows, crossing dangers, and other strategic events.

Anomaly detection

GNSS-independent flights to identify perimeter mismatches and compare against baselines. 

Terrain micro-mapping

Computer vision to detect and map potential obstacles: rubble edges, loose debris, soft ground, mined areas.

Concealment detection

Computer vision to reveal and flag disturbed surfaces: disrupted soil, tarp/netting irregularities, and similar.

Post-strike forensics

Locked hover to capture pre- and post-strike imagery (scorch/burn patterns, collapsed structures) for forensics.

Drop-site assessment

Stable hover to verify landing and drop-site safety (slope angles, obstacle density, tree height, soft-soil cues).
