ZALA Introduced a new ARSENAL flight control platform: an intelligent UAV control center
The company ZALA presents the ARSENAL universal software and hardware platform, which is installed directly on the unmanned aerial vehicles. The new solution is equipped with its own high-performance computer and combines hardware with software algorithms. The platform is compatible with all types of UAVs ZALA, allowing the connection of various equipment and processing of huge data sets, including video streams and thermal imaging data, directly during flight. This approach, in line with the global trend of Edge AI, reduces the dependence on the bandwidth of communication channels and eliminates the need for constant transmission of information to a ground station.
ARSENAL ZALA has implemented a complex of advanced intelligent systems. These include software modules that enable autonomous operation in solving tasks of searching, identifying, classifying, segmenting, vectorizing and tracking objects in video images and thermal data, as well as aiming and tracking of barraged munitions. The platform calculates and displays on the screen the speed, dimensions, direction of movement and distance to moving objects in real time. Additionally, alternative navigation systems are integrated, allowing the UAV to determine its location without using satellite systems—both during the day and at night.
The platform has become an integral part of the digital ecosystem ZALA and represents a fundamental foundation for future solutions. Innovative technologies are already in demand to solve a wide range of tasks: from infrastructure monitoring, road traffic control, and search and rescue operations to special tasks.
