Deeper Inside
The major part of our development is our Sense & Avoid technology. We have engineered a patented algorithm with implemented aeronautical rules, which was successfully tested in the air. As we are specialised in the topic of autonomous flying, driving or swimming it was not enough for our team just to go around an obstacle. Additionally the vehicle will automatically reroute to the given waypoints.
Our lessons learned about the control of one vehicle in the air, at the ground and at the water we decided to take the next logical step to find a new challenge. Now we are developing our Sense & Avoid technology to enable a swarm of vehicles to communicate and navigate interactive. In this swarm each vehicle can have a different mission to follow.
