Drones to be equipped with "smart eyes": Rostec creates optoelectronic systems with neural networks

The novelty operates on a gyrostabilized platform and consumes energy efficiently

The Rosele holding (part of Rostec) has developed a line of optoelectronic systems for unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as for ground and surface robotic systems. The series includes seven models, which differ in weight, dimensions, and detection range.

All modifications are installed on a gyrostabilized platform with two-axis rotation, which ensures a stable image even when the carrier is moving. The devices operate in the visible range, and some versions are additionally equipped with infrared channels for observation in low light conditions. The image is output in a standard video format.

Two modifications have a built-in neural network that automatically recognizes objects and reduces the operator's workload. The developers note the economical power consumption of all devices.

The equipment can be used not only in military and robotics fields but also for civilian tasks: traffic monitoring by GIBDD employees, forest monitoring, and prompt detection of natural fire outbreaks.
