Technology

Four breakthroughs. One certified platform.

Each is being developed with a Swiss federal research institution. Together, they don't exist anywhere else in the commercial market today.

The technology, in the field.

01 · Silent Propulsion

A hovering Owl is quieter than a conversation.

Ducted fans lined with acoustic metamaterials, developed with a Swiss federal materials research institute, cut noise by 70% against standard commercial drones — critical for hearing an injured person, for undisturbed wildlife, and for immersive public light shows.

Helicopter (100m altitude)90 dB

Autonomous flight — zero satellites
02 · GPS-Denied Navigation

Flies where satellites cannot reach.

Developed with a leading Swiss robotics research lab, our visual-inertial SLAM navigates deep valleys, dense fog, and tree canopy — conditions where GPS fails completely. A world-first for a certified civil drone platform.

03 · Swarm Intelligence

One operator. One swarm. Not ten drones to babysit.

Developed with an international multi-agent systems research group, every Hathor swarm shares a single brain — dividing search areas, relaying communications, and re-tasking itself automatically if a unit fails.

04 · Modular Payload System

One airframe. Infinite missions. Swapped in under two minutes.

The same Owl airframe carries a thermal camera for search, a medical drop pod for rescue, a fire retardant tank for wildfire, or a LiDAR sensor for inspection — no specialized tools required.

Security & Data Sovereignty

Built for institutions that cannot compromise.

Swiss data sovereignty

All mission and telemetry data is processed and stored within Switzerland.

On-device autonomy

Navigation and swarm coordination run on-board — no cloud dependency mid-mission.

FOCA certification pathway

Documented, auditable operations, developed for BVLOS approval under Swiss federal aviation authority.

Encrypted comms link

All telemetry and command links are encrypted end-to-end between airframe and operator.
