UgCS Commander is SPH Engineering's solution for managing multiple UAVs on automated missions at the same time. It builds on SPH's UgCS flight planning software. HobiTech supplies it in India as an Official Partner of SPH Engineering.
You plan routes for multiple vehicles within UgCS Commander, assign them to the connected drones, and monitor the flight on a real-time telemetry dashboard and in the UgCS 3D environment. Proximity alerts warn you if drones come too close to each other, and you can pause or resume missions and land drones as needed.
The right setup depends on the number of aircraft, the drone types and the site, so this licence is quoted against your requirement. Tell us how many drones and which platforms are involved and we will confirm the details with SPH Engineering before quoting.
Documentation
What is UgCS Commander used for?
- Testing counter-drone systems
- Speeding up drone surveys
- Search and rescue operations
SPH Engineering names these sectors:
- Security and surveillance firms: coordinate multiple drones for ongoing security and surveillance of large events or facilities. Also companies creating and testing anti-drone systems.
- Surveying and mapping companies: extensive geospatial data collection and area mapping.
- Academic and research institutions: aerial data for research projects, including environmental studies and archaeological explorations.
- Government and environmental agencies: environmental assessments, wildlife conservation and monitoring changes in natural habitats.
- Emergency services and search and rescue organisations: coordinated search patterns and monitoring during emergency and rescue operations.
- Film production companies: control multiple drones for creative filming, capturing several angles and complex aerial shots at the same time.
What are the benefits?
- Control multiple drones at the same time to save time and resources with coordinated drone flights.
- Supports DJI and other leading drone manufacturers, bringing drones from different brands into a single platform.
- Real-time telemetry dashboard to monitor critical drone data at a glance.
- 3D environment for drone monitoring, so you can see drone operations in real time.
- Customisable flight control, so you can adapt drone missions on the fly.
How does UgCS Commander work?
- Route planning: plan routes for multiple vehicles within UgCS Commander.
- Assignment: assign these routes to connected drones.
- Connectivity: connect drones using the same methods as in standard UgCS. DJI drones connect through UgCS for DJI on Android devices; other drones through means such as radio datalinks or Wi-Fi.
- Real-time telemetry: monitor critical drone parameters on a dashboard: battery level, altitude and speed.
- 3D environment: see all drones in the 3D environment of UgCS.
- Proximity alerts: get alerts if drones come too close to each other.
- Control flexibility: pause missions, resume missions and land drones as needed.
