Platform One

Safer landings promised

UAV Navigation has enhanced the internal algorithms of its autopilot during the landing phase to include differential braking control of the undercarriage for fixed-wing UAVs.

Platform One

Navigation by neural net

Researchers in Belgium have developed the first UAV navigation architecture to fuse an event-based camera and a frequency modulated continuous wave radar.

Platform One

SDR resists interference

Atlas has developed a software-defined radio (SDR) module for UAVs with a reliable anti-interference mode. The 3W radio module supports frequency hopping as a key part of the anti-jamming algorithm in UAVs. It measures 31 x 37 x 4 mm and weighs only 7 g.

Platform One

Fast, low-power vision

Rather than using general-purpose high-performance vision processors for autonomous vehicles, Recogni and Renesas have developed an embedded platform, which can deliver up to 2000 TOPS.
