FlightHorizon PILOT™
* * * COMING SOON * * *

Based on a patent and software developed at NASA, the system uses algorithms and flight rules to achieve safety and regulatory compliance when flying beyond visual line-of-sight.
FlightHorizon PILOT™ is installed as an independent flight computer or as a software module on a primary flight computer onboard the unmanned aircraft and uses the signal from an aviation transponder (ADS-B) on the unmanned aircraft to track in real-time all other nearby aircraft. The software then provides self-separation and commands to maintain well-clear distances in the form of waypoints to the autopilot. When available, add-on data sources include onboard radar and networked air traffic control feeds (UTM).
FlightHorizon PILOT™ is designed to meet the FAA’s Part 107.205 waiver requirements for beyond visual line-of-sight flights and the anticipated RTCA SC-228 Phase II Minimum Operating Performance Standards (MOPS).
