Autonomy Core
Mission logic, sensor fusion, route awareness, and assisted control.
03 / Technology
Resilient autonomy for the edge of the map.
Nordheart systems combine onboard perception, degraded-signal navigation, secure command links, and field-ready interfaces for operations where ordinary connectivity cannot be assumed.
Mesh Link
Resilient command and telemetry channels across air and ground units.
Operator Layer
Tablet and remote workflows that keep manual control close at hand.
Cold Systems
Power, sealing, and thermal logic designed for northern deployment.
Architecture
Built as one stack, not a set of disconnected devices.

System Schematics
Command, navigation, and autonomy tied into one control loop.
The aircraft, operator tools, antenna system, and onboard estimator work as one architecture: commands move through MAVLink, position is hardened by CRPA-assisted GNSS and inertial data, and the autonomy core keeps the mission stable when any single signal becomes unreliable.

01 / MAVLink over network
Internet command path
MAVLink carries command intent, health data, telemetry, and payload events between the operator layer and the aircraft. The local gateway keeps the air link separate from the wider internet path.
02 / CRPA + GNSS
Antenna protection layer
The CRPA array shapes reception so useful satellite signals are favored while hostile or noisy directions are reduced before the navigation solution reaches the flight computer.
03 / GPS + inertial
Fused navigation estimate
GPS gives absolute position, the inertial system fills fast motion and short signal gaps, and the estimator merges both into a stable state for route following and recovery behavior.
