The development team can utilize the Carmenta Engine SDK to further tailor and customize the developed application.

Key Features

Architecture and Modules

Carmenta UAS Mission Planning Package provides a base architecture for UAS mission planning applications based on Carmenta technology. It consists of a set of modules that provides common functionalities for UAS applications. These include various routing calculations, functionalities to decode and display georeferenced videos, and methods to export generated routes in standardized formats.

UAS route planning typically requires several user interactions. The following UI components are provided for this process:

• Management of route waypoints and mission parameters.
• Task planning and rehearsal, including simulated camera view and coverage on a 3D model of the environment.
• Playback with STANAG 4609 georeferenced video.

Tactical Stealthy UAS Routing

Calculate tactical deconflicted flight paths for various mission requirements. Optimized routes are generated in real-time based on mission parameters and are deconflicted towards terrain, buildings, airspaces, static and dynamic hazards, and other routes.

Other parameters include balancing constraints such as time, energy consumption, radio coverage, stealth, camera path, reachable emergency landing zones, synchronization with other moving vehicles, etc.

Placement and Mobility of Observers

Identify optimal observation positions for drone surveillance of an area, while also considering inputs such as radio coverage.

These could be either static observer points or a set of waypoints along an observation line. The objective is to ensure good coverage of the target area while simultaneously keeping within radio coverage of the ground station.
