Aerial Video Takes a Big Leap Towards Real-Time Situation

Posted in CartoNews

Aerial Video Takes a Big Leap Towards Real-Time Situation Awareness, Powered by Edgybees' Geo-Registration Software and HoodTech's Sensors

Real-time visual augmentation of airborne imagery with roads, key landmarks, and other mission-critical data

GAITHERSBURG, Md. and HOOD RIVER, Ore., April 7, 2021 — (PRNewswire) —Edgybees[1], a leading provider of real-time geo-registration and visual augmentation software foraerial video[2], and HoodTech, a premier provider of air-borne imaging and related services, today announced they are collaborating to enhance situational awareness, using the powerful combination of Edgybees' breakthrough software and HoodTech's state-of-the-art sensors. 

With this partnership, Edgybees and HoodTech deliver a first-of-its-kind solution, empowering users of aerial imagery to accurately geolocate operational scenes in real-time, using both Electro-Optical (EO) and Infra-Red (IR) day/night payloads. With accurate geolocation achieved, situational awareness is increased with the overlay of any number of GIS-based data. 

"Full situational awareness is crucial to making decisions during public safety, defense and rescue missions. This is even more true during night missions, where Edgybees' capability to also geo-register IR imagery in real-time comes into play," stated Adam Kaplan, co-founder and CEO of Edgybees. 

HoodTech's Andy von Flotow, continues, "A challenge faced by users of air-borne imagery is imperfect real-time understanding of the geolocation of the displayed image.  The user too-often must cross-reference HoodTech's air-borne imagery with maps and/or other archived imagery....

Kratos XQ-58A Valkyrie Successfully Completes Sixth Flight, Including First Payload Release from Internal Weapons Bay

SAN DIEGO, April 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:KTOS), a leading National Security Solutions provider, announced today that the Air Force Research Laboratory, in partnership with Kratos Unmanned Systems Division and Area-I, successfully completed the XQ-58A Valkyrie’s sixth test/demonstration flight and first release from its internal weapons bay on Friday, March 26, 2021, at Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona.

A photo accompanying this announcement is available at https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/b066c8aa-614e-4484-9620-f2543f510d80[1]

Steve Fendley, President of Kratos Unmanned Systems Division, said, “Successful operation of the internal weapons release system/function along with further aerodynamic envelope increases continues to assert the incredible capability and cost-per-performance value of the low-cost attritable XQ-58A Valkyrie. Additionally, this unique and key mission function success adds an exclamation point to the 30-month development of the Valkyrie system by the Kratos and AFRL team, which resulted in a pre-production system with substantial operational capability, not simply a proof-of-concept flight demonstrator.”

This test demonstrated the ability to launch a small, unmanned aircraft system (SUAS) from the internal weapons bay of the XQ-58A. Kratos, Area-I and AFRL designed and fabricated the SUAS carriage and developed software to enable release. After successful release of the ALTIUS-600 SUAS, the XQ-58A completed additional...
