Sightline OS · v2.4
Autonomy you can audit.
Sightline is the software that flies R7, sees for it, keeps three aircraft talking, and puts every decision in front of a person, with a record of why.
(01) The stack
Four layers. The top one is a person.
Everything below the operator runs on the aircraft itself. If the link drops, each R7 keeps flying safely and heads home on its own.
04
Operator
Confirms or dismisses every track. Sets intent, never stick-and-throttle.
Confirm
Dismiss
Hand-off
03
Coordination
Splits a search area between aircraft and keeps their link chain intact.
Formation
Area split
Relay
02
Navigation
Plans around terrain and restricted air, and holds position when GNSS is gone.
Terrain match
Geofence
RTB
01
Perception
Fuses daylight and thermal on board and proposes tracks with a confidence score.
EO + IR
Tracking
< 40 ms
(02) Navigation
When GPS goes quiet, the ground still talks.
R7 carries an elevation map of its mission area. Its downward camera matches ridgelines and tree edges against that map several times a second, so the aircraft knows where it is even while GNSS is jammed or spoofed.
(03) Mesh link
Every aircraft is also a relay.
When a ridge blocks the line to the ground station, Sightline repositions a wingman to carry the link. The operator keeps live video from an aircraft they can’t see.
Encryption
AES-256
Per hop
14 km
Latency
< 180 ms
(04) Human in the loop
The aircraft proposes. A person decides.
Sightline never acts on a track by itself. It shows what it saw, how sure it is, and waits.
01 · Detect
Perception flags movement.
Daylight and thermal agree on a vehicle on the valley road. Confidence 0.91.
02 · Propose
A track appears for review.
The operator sees the clip, both sensor views and the reason it was flagged, side by side.
03 · Decide
Confirm or dismiss.
Only a confirmed track is followed or shared. Dismissed tracks teach the model what to ignore here.
04 · Record
Everything is logged.
Who decided, when, and on what evidence. Signed and kept on your ground station for review.
(05) Security
No cloud. Nothing to breach.
On-device
Keys never leave your hardware.
Aircraft and ground station pair in person, in the case, before the first flight.
Zeroise
One switch wipes it.
A lost aircraft can be erased from the ground, and erases itself if its case seal breaks.
