UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía Develops Heads-Up Display Technology for Enhanced UAV First-Person Flight Visualization
This Innovative OSD Solution Enhances the Primary Flight Display (PFD)
with Real-Time Flight Information, Improving Situational Awareness.
Madrid, 15 Oct 2024 – UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía, the company that is an expert
in guidance, navigation and control solutions for UAS, has announced the
development of advanced On-Screen Display (OSD) technology which
improves the Primary Flight Display (PFD) of the flight control system to show first
person visualization to NATO CAT I & II UAS operators. This advancement has
been designed so that it can be integrated with IP cameras and Visionair, the
advanced mission planner of the Spanish autopilot and navigation systems
manufacturer.
The new HUD (Heads-Up Display) technology provides UAV operators with
enhanced situational awareness catering to both civil and military applications.
By overlaying vital flight data on the live video stream, operators can make more
informed and quicker decisions to maintain superior control over their UAV
operations. The remote pilots will be able to estimate distances to other
platforms, improving flight safety or getting bullseye precision during landings
and other maneuvers and applications.
This significant improvement has been specifically designed and developed for
our long-term client Primoco UAV, whose platform is in the process of acquiring
the STANAG 4703 certification. This collaboration underscores our commitment
to delivering tailored solutions to our clients, listening to their needs and our
commitment to meet the rigorous standards required for advanced UAV
operations.
"Our experience with UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía has been exceptional," shared Ladislav Semetkovsky, CEO at Primoco UAV. "The integration of the new OSD technology into our UAV fleet has significantly increased situational awareness of our operators and it presents another step towards safety standards typical for manned aviation. The development team's dedication to understanding our specific operational needs and delivering customized, cutting-edge solutions has been instrumental in optimizing our performance in challenging environments. We can confirm the new OSD concept is fully compliant with the applicable UAV certification standards. “
"This latest advancement underscores our client-focused approach and dedication to flight safety while reinforcing our leadership in UAV innovation," said Miguel Ángel de Frutos, Director & CTO at UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía. "Our new OSD technology not only boosts the operational capabilities of UAVs but also markedly enhances the safety and efficiency of their missions."
