A new swarm technology reflects advanced launching capabilities. Blue Bear has successfully demonstrated seven UAS simultaneously taking off with its push-button ‘remote launch’ technology, which allows a remote operator, virtually anywhere in the world, to be able to command a fleet of VTOL Fixed Wing UAS to take off and transition into individual or cooperative swarming missions.

The company’s Ghost UAS was used as part of this demonstration. Fitted with proprietary avionics, plug and play open architectures and SmartConnect technology, the fully autonomous Ghost UAS is one of the most advanced small UAS in the world.

The modular architecture allows it to be easily fitted with one of the plug and play payloads from the growing ecosystem of payload providers.

The modular payload bay is now being adapted for medical delivery applications, and the fully autonomous remote launch functionality makes the prospect of fully autonomous drone delivery and centralised command and control a clear reality.

The SmartConnect open architectures, autopilots and other avionics can be retrofitted to third party UAS, UGVs, USVs and UxVs to enable them to utilise the growing ecosystem of plug and play payloads, according to the company’s announcement.
