Drone Autonomy Stack

Full Autonomous Flight Perception

The Drone Autonomy Stack extends our perception platform to aerial applications. Built on the same modular architecture as the Xenon Perception Engine, it adds full autonomous flight capabilities through autopilot integration — streaming sensor data to the flight controller while receiving commands for closed-loop control. The stack includes 3D object detection and multi-object tracking for persistent object identity. Multi-sensor fusion combines LiDAR, IMU, camera, and additional sensors for robust state estimation in GPS-denied environments. Hardware-in-the-loop simulation provides complete flight dynamics, realistic sensor noise models, and full stack testing from perception through planning to control — all before the first flight.

Key Features

Autopilot Integration

Bidirectional communication with flight controllers. Sensor data streaming and motor commands for closed-loop HIL simulation.

3D Object Detection

Point cloud processing for real-time object detection, classification, and scene understanding from aerial perspectives.

Multi-Object Tracking

Persistent object identity management across frames with configurable motion models and robust data association.

Flight Dynamics Simulation

Complete flight dynamics simulation with realistic sensor noise and full stack testing from perception to control.
