NÆRO
"NÆRO" PROJECT
Multi-role vertical take-off and conventional avionics system.
The NÆRO avionics system represents the cutting edge of unmanned, remotely controlled or autonomous systems.
It comprises a family of aircraft of various sizes and load capacities. Distinctive features include vertical and conventional takeoff capabilities, hovering capability, flight range, payload capacity, and extraordinary maneuverability, making it a useful tool for transporting countless types of payload.
Common applications include, for example, area surveillance, searching for survivors in flood zones, transporting medicines where traditional means are impossible, inspecting highway viaducts, power lines, and gas pipelines, and video recording. "Special" versions feature low radar signatures, splashdown capability, and the ability to install active and passive sensors.
Main features of the project
Thanks to its vertical takeoff capability, the NÆRO system does not require runways or takeoff/landing areas. Special versions can splash down on bodies of water and float. Takeoff and landing can also be performed conventionally where space is available.
No infrastructure required to operate
Load capacity
The system is sized to accommodate various types of “payloads.” Interfaces are available for installing sensors such as:
- Cameras;
- Contaminant detectors
- Lasers
- Pressure sensors
Special versions can accommodate “customized objects.”
The system is capable of performing maneuvers such as low-speed approaches, glides, and hovers; thanks to this feature, NÆRO is suitable for use where conventional means are impossible. The system also features automatic collision avoidance.
