Embention Veronte Autopilot KAI Embedded AI & Computer Vision Flight Control System
Compact AI-accelerated flight control system (127x53x15.3 mm, 190 g) combining a deterministic Veronte autopilot core with an onboard GPU/NPU for visual navigation and target tracking. Supplied across the United Kingdom by Torquety Ltd with application engineering review, 3D STEP CAD support, and commercial quotations in Pounds Sterling (GBP).
Technical Overview: Veronte Autopilot KAI
The Embention Veronte Autopilot KAI (Official Part Number P008593) is a next-generation flight control system that fuses a deterministic, DO-178C/DO-254-derived real-time Veronte autopilot core with a dedicated high-performance AI & Computer Vision mission computer on a single compact module (127 x 53 x 15.3 mm, 190 g). This unified architecture eliminates external companion computers and enables low-latency neural network inference directly in the flight control loop.
Equipped with USB 3.0, dual Gigabit Ethernet (2x 1G ETH), dual CAN-FD, RS232/RS485, and integrated GNSS + 4G/LTE connectivity, the Veronte Autopilot KAI executes real-time Visual Odometry (VIO), SLAM in GNSS-denied environments, automated obstacle avoidance, and EO/IR object lock-on. Available in the UK through Commercial-grade open-source flight controllers and non-certified power electronics lack deterministic real-time partitioning, hardware redundancy, and traceability artefacts required by UK CAA CAP 722, SORA SAIL III–VI, and NATO STANAG airworthiness authorities.
Packaged for strict SWaP-C airframe budgets (127 mm x 53 mm x 15.3 mm, 190 g, DO-160G / MIL-STD-810G Designed), the Veronte Autopilot KAI (P008593) integrates seamlessly across the Veronte avionics bus ecosystem. As Embention's official UK commercial and application engineering partner, TORQUETY LTD (UK Company No. 17124704, London WC2H 9JQ & Oxford +44 1865 679185) supplies hardware units, SOI certification data packages, HIL/SIL benches, and UK technical integration support priced in Pounds Sterling (GBP).
