Platform

DroneCommand™ separates the command layer from the vehicle.

The architecture exists to make one thing possible: adding a new asset type should be an integration task at a single layer, never a migration of the whole system.

Edge compute node in a secure data centre with an overlay of European network topology.

Sovereign deployment topology: on-premise, edge or air-gapped.

Stack

Four layers, one boundary that matters.

  1. 01

    COMMAND LAYER

    Mission, tasking and the shared picture

  2. 02

    AUTONOMY SERVICES

    Perception, classification, planning

  3. 03

    HARDWARE ABSTRACTION LAYER

    One interface, many vehicles

  4. 04

    AGENTS

    Aerial, ground and static assets

COMMAND LAYER

Mission, tasking and the shared picture

Operators express intent as tasks against capabilities. The command layer resolves which agents can satisfy a task, maintains the shared situational picture and records every authorisation decision.

AUTONOMY SERVICES

Perception, classification, planning

Assistive services run alongside the command layer, on the edge or on your infrastructure. They propose; they never actuate. Availability of these services is not a precondition for flight.

HARDWARE ABSTRACTION LAYER

One interface, many vehicles

Vehicle-specific behaviour is confined to adapters built on open standards and open-autopilot platforms. Adding a manufacturer touches this layer only.

AGENTS

Aerial, ground and static assets

Each agent publishes state and capabilities and executes authorised tasks. Flight control remains onboard and independent of the command layer.

Deployment

Three topologies, one codebase.

The deployment topology changes where the software runs, not what it does. Interfaces, authorisation model and audit behaviour are identical across all three.

On-premise

Full deployment inside your data centre, under your administration and your network policy.

Edge

Command and autonomy services co-located with the operation for low latency and link independence.

Air-gapped

No external connectivity. Local model execution, offline update packaging, local audit storage.

Interfaces

Open where it counts.

Interfaces exposed by DroneCommand™
