Three parts work together: field equipment gathers information, a network carries it, and applications help the team use it. Start with the information you need to share. We also design and develop custom hardware for UAS, UGV and USV, from electronic circuits and PCBs to system prototypes.
Choose the equipment for the task, define a suitable connection, then decide where the team will view the information. The products below have different roles in that plan.
Phones, radios, UAV and sensors provide positions, status or video. Select the platform and visual equipment for your task.
Define how the data reaches the team: an IP network, a compatible radio gateway, or a private LTE/5G network. Meridian Private LTE/5G is available for order, with specifications selected for the project.
SpectreTAK brings team positions and map information together. SpectreCast brings received Analog FPV video onto a computer for viewing, recording or configured streaming.
These examples explain two connection paths. Device support and configuration determine which information can travel along each path.
Bring supported TAK clients and mesh participants into the coordination workflow.
The web console shows maps, devices and network status. Messaging uses supported clients. Each radio network has its own connection path.
Read the TAK and mesh guideBring the video from a compatible receiver onto a computer.
Viewing, recording and streaming are configured choices. An optional video distribution service such as MediaMTX is configured separately.
Read the Analog FPV video guideSpectre Dynamics designs FPV control links for resilience in Electronic Warfare (EW) environments. The system supports continual updates to adapt to new detection systems and jammers, with improvements aimed at reducing detectability and the impact of interference.
Designed to help maintain the control connection in operating environments affected by electronic interference.
Ongoing improvements aim to reduce detectability and disruption as detector and jammer systems evolve.
Supported control link equipment can receive updates to improve its response to new detection and jamming threats.
Equipment selection and update scope are defined for the project, with performance evaluated against the intended operating conditions.
CUSTOM HARDWARE / UNMANNED SYSTEMS
We design and develop hardware for UAS, UGV and USV: electronic circuits, custom PCBs and prototype systems built around the platform, its interfaces and the equipment your project needs.
Hardware for airborne platforms and their ground equipment.
Electronics and interfaces for unmanned ground platforms.
Hardware for unmanned surface platforms and onboard equipment.
The development scope, interfaces, operating conditions and deliverables are agreed for each project.
Discuss your hardware projectCUSTOM SOFTWARE · FULL STACK · DUAL-USE
Our Phatthalung and Trang teams develop nearly all of the software for our FPV platforms, including customized Betaflight, Reaper Eye integration and Control Link software. Our wider development services cover embedded firmware, communications, Flight Controllers, VTX/VRX, ground stations and custom protocols.
PHATTHALUNG · TRANG · THAILAND
Nearly all of the software for our FPV platforms is developed by our own team at the Phatthalung and Trang labs. This includes adapting Betaflight and building the software that connects flight control, onboard systems and ground equipment.
Our team modifies Betaflight to meet military mission requirements and integrates it with the Spectre FPV platform.
Our platform software supports integration with Reaper Eye visual systems as part of the agreed platform configuration.
We develop Control Link software with reduced detectability by commercially available Drone Detector systems and resilience against jammers and electronic warfare (EW) as design goals.
Control Link performance depends on the selected hardware, software configuration, operating environment and the detection or interference system involved. Evaluation criteria are defined for each project.
Meridian Private LTE/5G is a private mobile network for tactical operations and disaster response, available for order. Connect compatible field devices, SpectreTAK, MANET/IP and UAV equipment through the network configured for the project.
Send control commands from the ground station and return flight telemetry over a defined IP path.
Ground station, autopilot, communication equipment, network performance and behaviour on connection loss must be evaluated together before flight use.
Start with the overview above. Open these notes to check the interfaces and compatibility needed for your equipment.
Meshtastic uses configured MQTT; MeshCore uses Companion TCP or an HTTPS gateway beside the field radio; Reticulum uses configured interfaces and LXMF. The relevant gateway needs an IP path to the server. Each network uses its own protocol and configured connection.
Position, battery and diagnostic information depend on what the client reports. A recent server connection and a recent position update are separate signals; check both when reviewing a device.
SpectreTAK reduces mesh images to 8 KiB and needs compatible receiving software. Standard Meshtastic and MeshCore phone apps do not reconstruct those image fragments. Evaluate text, position and image support separately with the selected clients.
TAK clients use configured certificates. Mesh identities are linked to active accounts, and MeshCore gateway credentials can be revoked. Web users can enable authenticator MFA. Live Reticulum status and managed RNS updates with version restore are available in the SpectreTAK console.
Use the equipment your team will actually operate to agree the connection paths and evaluation scope. Discuss evaluation at our Test Labs in Trang and Phatthalung, where we develop and test eNB and UE. The Core Network is located in Krabi.
List phones, TAK clients, radios, UAV, receivers, capture devices and ground control stations.
Decide whether the team needs positions, messages, images, live video or UAV control and telemetry.
Define power, available IP connectivity, the number of users and where the system will run.
Check compatibility and behaviour with the chosen equipment. For UAV control, include what happens when the connection is lost.
Tell us the task and equipment you have. We will discuss the products, configuration and evaluation that fit the project.
MERIDIAN / NEXT NETWORKS
ACTIVE R&DMeridian connects the field with Private LTE/5G today. Our research explores 6G Network architectures and AI-RAN. We have selected NVIDIA Aerial as a platform for this research and development.
FUTURE NETWORK ARCHITECTURE
Research into how future mobile networks could connect communications, distributed computing and field applications. The focus is on architectures that can evolve with new operational needs, with performance and integration to be evaluated through research.
