Hardware Products

KTAC

Modular portable controller solution for UAVs & unmanned systems C2

KTAC Modular portable C2 controller

The Kutta Tactical Controller (KTAC) is a modular portable C2 (command and control) solution for tactical UAVs and unmanned systems, allowing you to dock a smartphone, tablet or computer to create a rugged and flexible controller that can withstand challenging battlefield conditions. Weighing less than two pounds, it can be easily carried in the field without sacrificing mobility.

KTAC Kutta Tactical ControllerThe versatile device provides seamless interoperability with Nett Warrior, and requires no proprietary software. It can be easily integrated with multiple mesh networks and COTS IP-based radios, allowing operators to adapt rapidly to changing mission requirements.

Unified Ground Control Station

 STANAG 4586-compliant unified C2 software for UAS

Kutta’s Unified Ground Control Station (UGCS) software provides a versatile UAS command and control interface that seamlessly scales across different hardware platforms, operating systems and display resolutions. It has been deployed to support a broad range of UAS platforms from small multirotors to unmanned Black Hawk helicopters, and offers 2D and 3D displays, comprehensive mission planning, and a wide range of payload control options.

UGCS Unified Ground Control Station for UAV

The STANAG 4586-compliant software is available in two variants – UGCS-C for foreign governments and commercial customers, and the ITAR-restricted UGCS-D for U.S. Department of Defense clients.

ISR Mission Planner

Mission planning software for aerial ISR operations

Our Mission Planner software has been designed to automate much of the manual planning associated with airborne ISR operations, utilizing open interfaces for seamless integration into existing defense platforms. Operators can quickly define high-level tasks such as routes and areas to survey, as well as targets and surveillance, loiter and rally points, and the software will automatically calculate the optimal stand-off loiter and sensor stare points.

Mission Planner can also automatically route around no-fly zones, compute mission times, and output easily readable flight-test cards for operators as well as digital visual reference files for onboard systems.

Unified Video Terminal

Hardware-agnostic Remote Video Terminal software solution

Our Unified Video Terminal (UVT) is an advanced Remote Video Terminal software solution that is compatible with a range of different operating systems and hardware platforms. Designed to STANAG 4586 standards, it can change the Level of Interoperability (LOI) available to match aircraft functionality and mission requirements.

UVT Unified Video TerminalThe software provides UAS operators with a variety of essential video payload control features, including:

  • Stare-at
  • Stare-from
  • Follow-and-track
  • Route and area survey
  • Auto-routing

Advanced Autonomy Suite

Software modules for advanced UAV & UxV autonomy

We have developed a number of specialized software components that can be combined together to create a powerful autonomy engine for UAVs and unmanned systems.

advanced autonomy software

Modules include:

  • Auto-routing
  • Radio frequency LOS analysis
  • Sensor footprint & footprint history
  • Autonomous route & area survey
  • Airspace management
  • Flight planning
  • MPEG metadata
  • Battle Damage Assessment

STANAG 4586 Interoperability

We can provide OS-independent STANAG 4586 Vehicle Specific Modules (VSMs) for a wide range of defense and government UAS autopilots and payloads. These translate proprietary or non-STANAG digital messages into the widely-utilized and open STANAG 4586 standard, providing interoperability across different ground control stations and equipment.

To find out how we can cost-effectively make your UAS STANAG 4586 compliant with rapid turnaround, please get in touch.
