Smith Myers ARTEMIS announces integration with FlySight Open Sight Mission Console software
Summary
Latest announcement in 35th anniversary year by Smith Myers at EUROPEAN ROTORS, the VTOL show and safety conference, 8-10 November 2022, Cologne, Germany Meet with our team at EUROPEAN ROTORS 2022, 8-10 November, Cologne, Germany (Hall K_H8 / 1610) and FlySight (Hall K_08/1214) Immediate release: 26 October, 2022: Biggelswade UK/Livorno, Italy: Smith Myers announces that its ARTEMIS Mobile Phone identification, geolocation and communication sensor is now available as an integrated airborne search solution with FlySight Open Sight Mission Console software. Designed to work with any FlySight hardware options ARTEMIS can detect a phone at extended ranges and provide unique capabilities such as mass-mapping and geofencing to minimise crew workload. ARTEMIS turns any mobile phone into a rescue beacon, only requiring two antennas to generate a latitude/longitude fix at up to 19 nautical miles (35km), offering a radical and effective alternative to traditional airborne sensors: • Texting and calls in no service areas • Deployment as a stand-alone with embedded mapping or integrate with leading mission system providers • Making missions in low light/ IMC (Instrument Meteorological Conditions) safer and increasing the odds for a positive outcome • Available in several SWaP configurations for manned/unmanned platforms According to Andrew Munro, director, Smith Myers: “ARTEMIS allows the operator to search for and geolocate the mobile phones of persons in distress during search and rescue operations and natural disasters. Real-time PED (Processing Exploitation and Dissemination) is allowed by the integration of our products in already existing architectures thanks to the interoperability of our systems with STANAG and OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium) standards. Moreover, the adoption of Deep Learning methodologies coupled to Augmented Reality enables the definition of disruptive ISTAR (Intelligence Surveillance Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance) systems.
