Bridging hands-on field operations with exploratory R&D. Dive into our ongoing research papers, autonomous flight architectures, and fundamental technical concepts powering precision aerial intelligence.
Our research lab focuses on practical problem statements encountered in coastal, industrial, and high-interference flight corridors.
Evaluating Visual Inertial Odometry (VIO) fallbacks and multi-sensor fusion when standard GNSS signals suffer from multipath degradation near high-metallicity port cranes and coastal cliffs.
Benchmarking sub-10ms quantized convolutional architectures running on airborne compute units to identify micro-cracks and structural corrosion during high-speed fly-bys.
Architectural proposal for rapidly deployable self-healing radio frequency relay mesh topologies enabling high-throughput video telemetry during infrastructure disruption.
Demystifying the foundational technical concepts used by engineers, surveyors, and creative directors to evaluate drone workflows.
GSD represents the real-world distance between the centers of two consecutive pixels. Calculated as: GSD = (SensorWidth × FlightAltitude × 100) / (FocalLength × ImageWidth). A 1 cm/px GSD means one image pixel covers a 1 cm square on the ground.
Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) corrects satellite positioning data on the fly via a base station radio link. Post-Processing Kinematic (PPK) logs raw GNSS observations and matches them afterwards, eliminating signal dropout risks in complex terrain.
Photogrammetry constructs 3D point clouds through parallax algorithms from overlapping high-res photos (ideal for visual realism and surfaces). Airborne LiDAR pulses millions of laser beams that penetrate forest canopies to sample ground terrain underneath.
We partner with research institutions, industrial labs, and defense specialists.
