# Viter Lab: The Evolution of Autonomy

> Viter Lab is building the autonomous backbone for the future of defence. From GPS-Denied Navigation today to Decentralized Swarms tomorrow.

## Core Philosophy & Narrative
- **The Core Strategy:** *"First, we solve navigation for the individual. Then, we connect the many."*
- **The Immediate Mission:** *"We are solving the 'Lost Drone' problem today, so we can solve the 'Coordinated Strike' problem tomorrow."*

## Primary Navigation Modules & Products

### [Viter Pathfinder](https://viterlab.com/gps-denied-navigation)
An AI co-processor/module designed for autonomous UAV navigation in GPS-denied and heavily jammed environments, ensuring absolute mission success under electronic warfare (EW).
- **Visual Odometry:** Advanced computer vision algorithms that deliver drift-free navigation without satellite dependency. Trajectory error does not accumulate over time/distance because the AI periodically "resets" the drift by anchoring to environmental data.
- **Terminal Guidance:** Precision simulated target lock-on for high-value applications.
- **Retrofit Ready:** True plug-and-play modularity designed to integrate seamlessly with standard flight controllers/autopilots (ArduPilot/PX4) as a neural upgrade to existing fleets, not a replacement.
- **Radically Low SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power):** Optimized for flight endurance and payload capacity. Target weight is under **170g** with typical power consumption of **~7W**.

## Reference Platforms
The Viter Pathfinder module is entirely platform-agnostic. The following reference platforms are used for development, simulation, testing, and deployment:

### 1. Tactical Multirotor
- **Role:** Short-range reconnaissance and tactical urban operations.
- **Form Factor:** Standard multicopter frames retrofitted with the Pathfinder module.

### 2. Viter Lab TAS-02 (Long-Range Delivery VTOL)
A high-endurance vertical takeoff and landing platform engineered for long-range tactical transport and logistics.
- **Wingspan:** 1.9 m
- **Maximum Take-Off Weight:** 6.0 kg
- **Weight (without battery):** 4.2 kg
- **Stall Speed:** 50 km/h
- **Cruising Speed:** 70 km/h
- **Maximum Speed:** 180 km/h
- **Maximum Flight Time:** 90 min
- **Maximum Range:** 100 km

## Roadmap & Milestones
- **Q4 2025 (Completed):** Core AI Architecture & Conceptual Design.
- **Jan 2026 (Current):** High-Fidelity SITL (Software-in-the-Loop) Validation of Pathfinder Navigation Logic in simulation.
- **Feb 2026 (Upcoming):** "Iron Bird" Flight Tests on multicopter testbeds and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) integration.
- **Q2 2026 (Target):** Brave1 Field Trials (Ukraine) validating single-unit visual navigation autonomy in real EW conditions.
- **2027+ (The Ultimate Goal - Phase 2):** **Decentralized Swarm Deployment**. Multi-agent collaborative flight enabling drones to coordinate search patterns, share target profiles, and distribute decision-making without a central ground control station (one brain, many agents).
