Intelligent Control and Routing for UxV Systems.

The Problem

The integration of new forms of air mobility (UAM, UAV, eVTOL) requires advanced digital tools to design, plan and validate infrastructure, missions and vehicles in complex and yet-to-exist scenarios.

Current solutions are fragmented, offline or focused on individual aspects (design, training, simulation), making it difficult to make quick effective and data-driven scenarios.

Current solutions are fragmented, offline or focused on individual aspects (design, training, simulation), making it difficult to make quick effective and data-driven scenarios.

The Solution

ICARUS, developed by TXT Group, is an integrated digital twin suite for the design, development, and deployment of next generation air mobility systems.

ICARUS is a modular, cloud-based, multi-functional platform streamlining the design, planning, execution and analysis of simulation-based scenarios for emerging air mobility systems (UAM, UAV, eVTOL, vertiports, etc.).

Use Cases

use case 1_icarus_v2

 

IRS Mission Validation in contested environments

• A military force must validate the effectiveness of a medium-range ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) mission in a low-intensity setting with electronic and logistical threats.

use case 2_icarus

 

Drone design for OEMs

• Design and customize drone frame, aerodynamics, engines and payload. 

 • Simulate and compare in real-time different kinds of aircraft and test the most suitable for a given mission profile.

use case 3_icarus

 

Training for Pilots and Payload Operators

• First person pilot or operator training, or fleet management training in real-time.

• Debriefing and review of critical actions.

use case 1_icarus

 

Fleet and Teaming for Pilots, Engineers and Mission Strategists

• Mission planning for drone fleets or drone-aircraft teaming.

• Evaluate and study the mission profile, the cooperation between drones when backed (or not) by radio carrier.
