Autonomous terminal guidance and cruise flight module for UAVs using neural networks for target acquisition and tracking.
Purpose: The module is designed for autonomous terminal guidance of unmanned aerial vehicles onto stationary and moving targets, with the capability to operate under radio suppression or limited communication conditions.
Specifications:
- Compatibility: 7, 8, 10, 15-inch quadcopters and others
- Fixed-wing platform integration: in development
- Computing module: RPiO, RPi5.1
- Camera options: day, night Kurbas-640A (thermal), digital with low-light mode
- Battery: as required by user
- Target acquisition range: 50–800 m
- Flight controllers: Betaflight, MilBeta, CrashDetect, Arducopter
- Video: analog or digital
- Multi-layer neural network support for target acquisition and tracking
- Occlusion and shadow processing, target boundary detection
- Manual aiming point adjustment
- Neural network tracking on the final 100 m
Advantages:
- Capable of operating under radio suppression or beyond radio line-of-sight
- Ability to bypass enemy protection systems and countermeasures (EW)
- Target centering and flight-to-center-of-target
- Aiming point adjustment after target acquisition
- Cruise mode
- Altitude hold mode
