Redwire introduced ShadowVision for its Octopus payload portfolio. The software provides operators with a unified interface for payload functions and mission information, including video, telemetry, sensor controls and mapping.
Key details
- Described features include automatic tracking and joystick-based virtual pan-tilt-zoom camera control.
- Mapping tools include offline maps, coordinates, field-of-view visualization, points of interest, grid overlays, and satellite and topographic layers.
- Operators can switch between electro-optical and infrared sensors, replay recordings, and manage onboard files.
- Redwire described AI-enabled tracking and automation as planned areas of future development.
ShadowVision combines video, telemetry, sensor controls and mapping in one interface.
Why it matters
The interface brings sensor control, mapping and mission information together for operators using Octopus payloads. Switching between electro-optical and infrared sensors gives operators access to two imaging types through the platform.
