Vizgard’s fortifai visual autonomy software significantly upgrades current systems by providing real-time visual intelligence and precise control over cameras and UxV platforms. This groundbreaking,platform-agnostic solution operates on low-power edge processors and has been successfully deployed across a variety of platforms,including UAVs,UGVs,USVs,C-UAS systems,long-range surveillance cameras,and even uncrewed submarines.

this robust system facilitates advanced multi-domain autonomy, greatly enhancing situational awareness for improved decision-making. The FortifAI platform boasts a continually growing array of essential features, such as:

  • Swift integration with existing systems
  • Time-sensitive visual and thermal video capabilities
  • Analysis of person, crowd, and vehicle behavior risks
  • Automation for multiple cameras and UxVs
  • Hot-swappable models suitable for land, air, and sea
  • An open architecture that allows for custom model deployment

FortifAI is compatible with a diverse range of C2 (command and control) platforms, and also EO/IR sensors and gimbals. It adheres to industry-standard protocols like MAVlink, SAPIENT, NMEA, Pelco-D, and ONVIF, ensuring straightforward integration with your existing systems.

Additionally, Vizgard has enhanced the widely-used qgroundcontrol drone software, tailoring it for defense and security applications. VGroundControl enables a single operator to manage and monitor multiple AI-driven UxVs or ground-based Pan/Tilt/Zoom cameras through a mobile or desktop interface.

Notable enhancements include:

  • Multiple screen configurations, featuring three video streams alongside a map.
  • Control capabilities for Parrot Anafi USA.
  • Display of drone FOV on the map.
  • Dynamic Automatic Target Recognition with filtering options.
  • Optical detections visualized on a map with GIF thumbnails.
  • Automated steering for NextVision gimbals.
  • PTZ camera control (ONVIF, Pelco-D) with smart tours and auto-tracking features.
  • Tasking and monitoring capabilities for multiple drones.
  • Precision vehicle steering and object following for UxVs.

Moreover, Vizgard presents VizEdge, a durable, wearable, low-SWAP computer that processes real-time sensor data at the tactical edge, delivering up to 100 TOPS of AI computing power for immediate analytics and decision-making.

VizEdge efficiently processes high-bandwidth video and sensor data in the field, minimizing latency, reducing reliance on cloud services, and enhancing security. The IP67-rated device can be worn (MOLLE compatible) or mounted on vehicles or unmanned platforms.
