UAC has patented a method for a pilot to control a group of drones using an aggregator server, which is created on the basis of artificial intelligence (AI). Among the authors of the invention is the director of the Sukhoi Design Bureau.
It is specified that the server will be integrated into the aircraft's onboard equipment. It will allow synthesizing a single tactical and informational field for the use of one or more drones. At the same time, the pilot can switch to manual mode and independently choose the flight program for the drones.
According to the patent information, the drone transmits data to the server from the objects it detects and their characteristics (coordinates, altitude, image in the optical and IR ranges).
Decision-making algorithms must take into account emerging factors and threats from the external environment, failures and damage, and make the optimal decision
That is, it is necessary to form a drone flight route taking into account the weather, the presence of air defense systems in the radius, defensive or tactical maneuvering. Solving most of these problems is possible thanks to the use of AI technology using machine learning.
Earlier it was reported that engineers at the Sukhoi Design Bureau came up with a new concept for the cockpit of the Su-75 Checkmate. If necessary, it can be removed and replaced with a drone head.
