SubsidieMeestersGPS-free, beyond the visual line of sight navigation for logistics drones in urban environments
Sightec's platform enables autonomous navigation and inspection for drones using vision-based algorithms, allowing complex tasks without GPS, demonstrated through successful delivery flights.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Sightec offers a unique platform based on cutting-edge algorithms which can provide vision-based orientation and navigation, real-time detection & tracking, visual positioning, and autonomous inspection.
Technology Overview
Sightec analytics performed on edge devices support a novel approach for determining global self-position. Our system enables constant communication and real-time broadcast of analytics to mission control, while using minimal network bandwidth.
Autonomous Navigation
With Sightec, autonomous and remotely piloted vehicles can navigate as human pilots do, by cross-referencing:
- Map data
- Visually observed landmarks
- Known waypoints
- Visible obstacles and hazards
Sightec enables drones to autonomously perform complex tasks that are otherwise impossible with currently available technology.
Demonstration
In February 2021, our capabilities were demonstrated through a successful flight of a delivery drone across five routes in southern Israel, beyond line-of-sight and without the use of GPS.
