FIELD RECORD ▸ SCOUT / ISRPAUSED

FIELD PROOF ▸ OPTICAL TRACKING BEATPAUSED

Continuous lock on geo-visual landmarks without GPS reference.

Capability

Reading the ground it flies over.

Both records show the platform building a picture of the terrain beneath it. This is the same class of information GVL uses to fix position when the satellite picture is unavailable — which is why it sits on this page rather than in a separate demo.

Subsystems

Scout / ISR, shown with its major subsystems marked.
  • GPS module

    Used when available; not depended on.

  • Carbon airframe

    Rigid platform for a stable image.

  • Stabilised camera core

    Sensing only. Never an effector.

  • Flight controller

    Holds attitude and position.

What it solves

Holding a useful picture over an area for a sustained period is difficult when the aircraft cannot rely on satellite positioning. Scout is built around holding position and holding the frame, so an operator gets continuity rather than snapshots.

The brain

GVL keeps the aircraft's position honest when the satellite picture is denied, which is what lets the camera stay on the thing that matters instead of drifting off it.
