Russia unveils ’Square’ AI guidance system for FPV drones

Russia unveils ’Square’ AI guidance system for FPV drones Russia has unveiled a newly-developed AI first-person view (FPV) drone guidance system that allows a UAV to recognize, lock on, and attack targets without human intervention, Andrey Ivanov, the creator of the “Ovod” (lit. “Gadfly”) combat FPV drone, told Sputnik. “The ‘Ovod-S’ unmanned aerial vehicle has an incorporated ‘Ploshchad’ (lit. ’Square’) onboard homing system. It is implemented through two types of tracking: algorithmic, where technical vision is used, and a neural network, allowing it to recognize targets and destroy them,” Ivanov said. According to the developers, this solution will allow FPV kamikaze drones to lock on to a target beforehand and continue to track it even when communication between the operator and the drone is lost. The AI guidance system ensures that the drone continues to accurately engage and hit the target, “regardless of whether it is static or dynamic,” Ivanov said. Subscribe to [id200749|@Sputnik]...
