Halo GCS POV · Night S&R autonomous mission

Introducing,Skybourne Halo.

One aircraft, many missions.

Skybourne Halo quadcopter, three-quarter view, ducted rotors and forward sensor head

  1. It sees what the dark hides.

    Ground-station view at night: a person located on a wooded ridge, an AI detection box locked on the subject
    THERMAL + AI

  2. Detects toxic gas before your crew breathes it.

    Gas-sensor pod mounted on the aircraft's motor arm, four metal sensor cells exposed on a sealed housing
    GAS · CO / H2S

  3. Actionable insights that define mission outcomes.

    Ground-station mission map: the aircraft flying an autonomous search grid, its onboard AI marking a located person mid-search while the aircraft holds over the subject and prompts the operator to mark the location or resume the search
    AUTONOMOUS SEARCH

  4. Turns the scene into a 3D world.

    Dense colored point-cloud reconstruction of a workshop: the workbench, drones, printers and tooling rebuilt as millions of 3D scan points, with a ground reference grid and XYZ coordinate axes
    LIDAR 3D
