The Cost of GPS Dependency
Organizations relying on GPS-dependent autonomous systems face:
1
Mission Failures - 73% of commercial drone mission failures occur in GPS-denied environments
2
Operational Limitations - Inability to operate in urban, indoor, or underground environments
3
Security Vulnerabilities - Susceptibility to jamming and spoofing attacks
4
Reliability Issues - Unpredictable performance in challenging environments
5
Limited Autonomy - Systems that become useless precisely when they're needed most
The drone industry urgently requires navigation solutions that empower fleets to:
1
Operate with precision and reliability, regardless of GPS availability
2
Seamlessly transition between outdoor, indoor, and underground environments
3
Resist and overcome active GPS jamming and spoofing attempts
4
Deliver consistent performance in all weather and all terrains
5
Unlock new use cases and revenue streams previously impossible due to GPS limitationsregardless of external infrastructure
our AI solution
Transforming Drones from Flying Cameras to Autonomous Sentinels
VISIONAIRY® equips your drone fleet with the market-leading GPS-denied navigation system, transforming your aircraft from GPS-dependent tools into truly autonomous, all-environment platforms. We provide the software brain that allows your drones to see, understand, and navigate complex spaces with unparalleled precision, even when GPS is completely unavailable.
We provide the software brain that allows your drones to see, understand, and navigate complex spaces with unparalleled precision, even when GPS is completely unavailable.
At the heart of VISIONAIRY® is our cutting-edge Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) engine, enhanced by robust multi-sensor fusion.
Achieve precise positioning and navigation, critical for tasks like infrastructure inspection, precision agriculture, and complex deliveries.
All computations are performed directly on the drone's existing hardware (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, Qualcomm Snapdragon, TI TDA4VM), requiring no external infrastructure or datalinks.
Ready to navigate in GPS-denied conditions within seconds of power-up.
Maintains full accuracy even during fast maneuvers and high-speed flight.
Drones maintain continuous navigation as they fly between GPS-available and GPS-denied zones.
Immune to GPS jamming and spoofing, ensuring mission continuity in contested or electronically noisy environments.
Solutions for Drones
GPS-Denied Navigation
The Critical Challenge of Navigation Without GPS
GPS dependency creates vulnerability!
In today's autonomous systems landscape, GPS dependency represents a critical vulnerability that impacts operations across multiple industries.
Urban Canyons & Indoors
Drones lose signal and become uncontrollable in dense city environments or inside buildings, rendering them useless for last-mile delivery or indoor inspection.
Underground & Confined Spaces
Mines, tunnels, and complex industrial sites are no-fly zones for GPS-reliant drones, missing out on critical inspection and mapping opportunities.
Contested Environments
Military and security drones are easily neutralized by GPS jamming or spoofing, failing critical missions when stakes are highest.
Natural Obstructions
Dense forests, mountainous terrain, or even severe weather can degrade or block GPS, leading to mission failure or loss of assets.

The Problem
GPS dependency creates vulnerability!
In today's autonomous systems landscape, GPS dependency represents a critical vulnerability that impacts operations across multiple industries.
Defense & Security
Military drones become inoperable in GPS-denied environments
Adversaries actively jam and spoof GPS signals during operations
Critical missions fail when GPS signals are compromised
Commercial Delivery
Urban canyons block reliable GPS signals between buildings
Indoor deliveries are impossible with GPS-dependent systems
Delivery accuracy suffers with GPS drift and multipath errors
Industrial Inspection
Underground facilities have zero GPS coverage
Indoor industrial environments block satellite signals
Critical infrastructure often exists in GPS-challenged locations
The Risks of GPS dependency
Organizations relying on GPS-dependent autonomous systems face:
mission failures
73% of commercial drone mission failures occur in GPS-denied environments
operational limitations
Your drone fleet is restricted to open-sky environments, unable to tackle a vast range of valuable use cases.
Increased Risk
Loss of GPS can lead to uncontrolled flight, collisions, and loss of expensive drone assets and sensitive payloads.
