4K ELECTRO-OPTICAL
DAY CAMERA SYSTEM
The primary electro-optical sensor delivers 4K Ultra HD resolution with 30× optical zoom — enabling positive identification of personnel and vehicles at distances exceeding 5 km. Unlike consumer-grade drone cameras, this military-specification sensor module maintains image stability through gyro-stabilised optics and digital image enhancement. The system streams encrypted HD video in real-time to the ground control station, while simultaneously recording mission footage on dual-redundant onboard storage. Advanced image processing algorithms automatically adjust for haze, glare, and high-contrast conditions typical of Indian terrain — from Thar Desert sandstorms to Himalayan snow-glare.
640×512 THERMAL
INFRARED IMAGING
The secondary thermal imaging sensor uses an uncooled 640×512 microbolometer array — the same class of detector deployed in frontline military ISR platforms globally. This sensor detects heat signatures through complete darkness, fog, light rain, smoke, and camouflage — making the drone operationally effective 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across every Indian terrain and climate zone. Auto-detection algorithms continuously scan the thermal feed and flag human and vehicle heat signatures in real-time, alerting the operator without requiring continuous manual monitoring.
3-AXIS STABILISED
PRECISION GIMBAL
Both the EO and thermal sensors are mounted on a lightweight 3-axis brushless gimbal that delivers sub-millidegree pointing accuracy and ±0.01° stabilisation — eliminating vibration and wind-induced jitter from the video feed even during aggressive manoeuvres and high-wind operations. The gimbal provides 360° continuous pan, -120° to +30° tilt, and ±45° roll compensation — giving the operator full-hemisphere sensor coverage without repositioning the aircraft.
AI-POWERED
DETECTION & TRACKING
The onboard AI processing unit runs deep-learning neural networks at the edge — eliminating latency and bandwidth dependency that cloud-based systems suffer from. The system performs real-time human detection, vehicle classification, and automatic target tracking across both EO and thermal sensor feeds simultaneously. Once a target is acquired, auto-track mode maintains continuous lock regardless of drone movement, operator input, or target manoeuvres.
ENCRYPTED
ANTI-JAMMING COMMS
The entire communication architecture is built around AES-256 military-grade encryption with frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) across the full operational band — making the data link virtually impossible to intercept, spoof, or jam. Anti-electronic warfare capability ensures the drone maintains reliable command, control, and video links in contested electromagnetic environments.
GPS + NavIC
DUAL-CONSTELLATION
The navigation system uses dual-constellation satellite positioning — GPS combined with India's own NavIC (IRNSS) regional navigation satellite system. NavIC provides enhanced accuracy over the Indian subcontinent with position accuracy of less than 5 metres — superior to GPS-only positioning in the Indian region. This dual-constellation approach ensures continuous navigation lock even in urban canyons, mountainous terrain, and areas where GPS signals may be intentionally denied.
HIGH-ALTITUDE
TACTICAL AIRFRAME
The airframe is engineered for the extreme operational envelope demanded by Indian defence operations — from sea-level coastal patrols to 18,000-foot high-altitude surveillance over Ladakh, Siachen, and Arunachal Pradesh. Carbon fibre composite primary structure with aviation-grade aluminium motor mounts achieves the optimal balance of structural rigidity, vibration damping, and weight efficiency. The folding-arm design enables rapid field assembly in under 10 minutes without tools.
3-BATTERY PACK
FIELD CHARGING
The power system is designed for sustained field operations — every system ships with three high-energy-density LiPo battery packs and a portable field charging unit that operates from standard 220V mains, 12V vehicle power, or optional solar panel input. Each battery delivers the full 50-minute endurance rating at cruise speed with sensor payload active. Hot-swap battery design enables sub-3-minute turnaround between flights.
RUGGED GCS
MISSION COMMAND
The ruggedised ground control station is purpose-built for Indian field conditions — MIL-STD rated for dust, moisture, vibration, and temperature extremes. The high-brightness sun-readable display provides clear dual-feed video (EO + thermal) and full-screen map overlay with real-time drone position, heading, and mission waypoints in direct sunlight. Offline map support with pre-loaded satellite imagery and topographic data ensures full mission capability even without connectivity.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
OPERATIONAL
DEPLOYMENT
Border Surveillance & Patrol
Autonomous pre-programmed patrol routes along international borders and Line of Control. 15 km sectors per sortie with 50-minute endurance — replacing hours of manual ground patrol with real-time aerial situational awareness.
Counter-Insurgency & Area Dominance
Real-time ISR support for counter-insurgency operations in dense forest, urban, and mountainous terrain. Thermal imaging detects concealed positions through canopy cover and darkness while AI auto-detection flags movement patterns.
Critical Infrastructure Protection
24/7 surveillance of high-value installations — power plants, refineries, military bases. Automated patrol routes with AI-triggered alerts on perimeter breach, vehicle approach, or unauthorised personnel detection.
Disaster Response & SAR
Rapid-deployment aerial search and rescue across flood, earthquake, landslide, and CBRN incident zones. Thermal imaging locates survivors under debris, in water, and in smoke-filled environments.
CERTIFIED INDIGENOUS
100% designed and manufactured in India. No Chinese components. Qualified under Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat defence procurement (DAP 2020).
