A new autonomous software platform has been introduced that allows drones from different manufacturers to operate as a single, unified swarm. The system—called Nemyx—is designed to deliver coordinated multi-drone operations with minimal human oversight, offering a scalable and modular solution for tactical missions in contested environments.
Made by autonomous software company Auterion, at the core of the system is AuterionOS, an open architecture drone operating system. Any drone running AuterionOS can be upgraded to participate in Nemyx-based swarm operations through a simple software update, eliminating the need for new hardware or platform-specific integration, according to the press release.
The Nemyx system uses AI and computer vision to support simultaneous engagement of multiple targets. By distributing processing across the swarm, the system enables drones to identify, prioritize, and act on threats independently, significantly reducing the cognitive load on human operators.
One of the system’s key components is its compatibility with Skynode S, a communication module built to resist electronic warfare interference. This allows drones to maintain coordinated operation even in GPS- or comms-denied environments—without requiring specialized training or platform redesign.
The platform has been optimized for a variety of mission profiles, including precision strikes, area surveillance, threat mapping, and border monitoring. Its scalability allows operators to deploy small teams of drones from portable kits, or larger formations from vehicle-based systems.
In a recent demonstration, drones from different vendors—equipped with the necessary software—conducted a simultaneous kinetic strike on multiple ground targets without direct operator control. The company presenting the system claims this was the first known instance of a multi-vendor drone swarm carrying out a coordinated live-fire mission.
While full operational details remain limited, the technology has reportedly already seen real-world use. Combat deployments of Skynode S-equipped drones began in Ukraine in 2024, and recent agreements suggest further expansion.
As interest grows in autonomous and interoperable drone capabilities, especially for military and border security applications, systems like Nemyx could mark a shift toward more adaptable and decentralized aerial operations.
