Terminal Guidance

Enables unmanned systems to execute precise final approach maneuvers toward fixed or mobile targets, ensuring accuracy, timing, and mission assurance during critical tasks such as target acquisition, effects delivery, or ingress into contested and GPS-denied environments.

Why Terminal Guidance?

While most autonomous systems struggle with accuracy in the last meters, Terminal Guidance bridges that gap with advanced vision-based alignment and control. 

It delivers precise, real-time maneuvering even in visually complex or GPS-denied environments, giving you unmatched confidence where it matters most.

Features

Unlock precise, safe, and intelligent landings with Spleenlab’s Precision Landing. Engineered for reliability in complex environments, it delivers advanced capabilities that go beyond standard descent systems.

Visual Target Alignment - Detects and aligns to the designated objective using onboard camera feed.

Adaptive Trajectory Correction - Adjusts heading, velocity, and orientation to approach the target with sub-meter accuracy.

Occlusion Handling - Maintains reliable tracking even when targets are partially obstructed.

Markerless or Marker-Based Support - Operates with natural features, designated patterns, or visual landing pads.

Configurable Behavior Triggers - Supports mission-specific logic—e.g., hold position, initiate drop, or switch to manual override.

GPS-Denied Operation - Functions reliably without dependence on GPS
