Persistent Surveillance

Tactical UAVs can be used to provide persistent surveillance, monitoring and observing large areas so that possible threats can be automatically detected and the appropriate response taken. UAVs equipped with CONTROP wide-area surveillance payload (WASP) allow operators to see live high-resolution imagery supported by on board AI algorithm that highlight moving targets and can capture multiple threats simultaneously over wide areas.

CONTROP’s 1.3kg STAMP-VMD provides visual coverage of a 1 sq. km area in real time and at high resolution. Owing to its low SWaP design, this payload can be integrated onto Group 1 UAVs. The STAMP-VMD is fitted with a unique integrated sensor processor that carries out onboard image processin. Onboard detection algorithms enable the use of standard datalink and minimal bandwidth to send only the relevant data to the operator at the ground station. Once combined with a targeting payload, the STAMP-VMD will provide wide-area surveillance and target detection capability.  While the second payload will investigate the targets and enable targeting operation.
