Purpose and goal
The aim of the project is to develop an autonomous drone platform designed for long-duration surveillance and patrolling, serving both civil and military applications. The goal is to create a system capable of operating without continuous human intervention, featuring continuous operation and advanced AI navigation, which enhances efficiency in crisis and security situations.
Expected effects and result
The project is expected to result in a fully functional prototype of an autonomous drone platform with AI-based navigation. The system’s effectiveness and autonomy will be demonstrated in field tests, with potential applications in both civil and military contexts to improve security and rescue capabilities.
Planned approach and implementation
The project will be carried out in four phases: Feasibility study and requirements specification, subsystem development, integration and verification, and demonstration and business development. During these phases, we will develop and test prototypes, conduct field trials, and work on business strategy and market analysis to ensure a successful launch.
